How you Can Help Advance Cancer Care for Pets
The Oncology Service of Washington State University’s College of
Veterinary Medicine is committed to providing world class cancer care to
companion animals. In addition, we are leading efforts to expand
comparative cancer research for the benefit of both humans and their
companions. At the same time, this service provides students with the
highest quality veterinary education bringing knowledge to practices
across the globe.
A program like ours and with our goals needs the benevolence of friends
who share our vision and want to join our effort to help animals.
Modern programs evolve and require continued facilities enhancement.
Recruiting and retaining the best people, both faculty and technical
staff, is also vital in the pursuit of these goals. Here is where you
can help.

People
A truly professional education requires face-to-face training in applicable
research techniques with faculty who teach, provide clinical care, and conduct
noteworthy research. Scholarship support for student education, both DVM and
Ph.D., enhances the training experience and encourages students to transition to
academic positions to develop tomorrow’s researchers.
Facilities
Internationally recognized programs require state of the art facilities as
well as maintenance and operations funding best provided by endowed gifts.
Rapidly changing technology must be updated regularly to allow faculty and
students to conduct groundbreaking research in the fight against cancer.
Programs
In collaboration with other Washington researchers and practitioners, WSU is
developing a transplantation medicine program at the heart of cancer care. This
brings new hope of prolonged survival to dogs with cancer. Facilities expansion
and specialty personnel are necessary to grow and export this program to benefit
dogs everywhere. The Comparative Oncology Laboratory is the flagship of this
research effort at the intersection of human and animal disease.
Promise
Collectively, faculty, staff, students, and most importantly benefactors are
the critical components necessary to conduct world class research and provide an
internationally recognized center of excellence in animal cancer care and
research at WSU’s College of Veterinary Medicine. Your gift will make a lasting
difference in the lives of companion animals and humans with cancer.
