Research Groups

UCVM supports a broad base of research excellence particularly in our Areas of Emphasis and strategic priority areas. We have established formal research groups to help develop our strategic priority areas and enhance their visibility. Each Group is shaped by the interests of their members. They bring together individuals with synergistic research expertise and enable collaborative research, knowledge translation and return to the community.
