My current teaching duties includes an
undergraduate course in veterinary anatomy, Functional Anatomy, in
which we cover both histology and gross anatomy of domestic animals.
A web-site has been, and continues to be, developed for the class
(http://www.vetmed.wsu.edu/VAn308) to assist the students with the
lab material. I am also the lead instructor in Veterinary
Microscopic Anatomy and a co-instructor in Veterinary Anatomy I &
II, the latter two courses being gross anatomy of small animals
(primarily the dog) and large animals (primarily the horse and
bovine) respectively.

Biographical Information
Patrick D. Wilson, after completing three years of undergraduate
training in Zoology at Northern Arizona University, received his
B.S. in Veterinary Science at Washington State University, following
completion of the first year in the Veterinary Medical Program
(1985). From 1985-90 he was a Research Assistant in the Department
of Veterinary Comparative Anatomy, Pharmacology and Physiology. In
1990 he earned concurrent degrees, an M.S. in Veterinary Science,
emphasis in anatomy, and a Doctorate in Veterinary Medicine. In
1991, he worked as a veterinarian at a mixed animal practice in
Glendale, Arizona. From 1992-94, he served as a Veterinary Clinical
Associate in Pathology at Texas A&M University, where he was
involved in a collaborative study which characterized the lesions of
a hereditary nephropathy in English Cocker Spaniels. He joined VCAPP
in 1997 as an Instructor and an Associate in Research. In the Fall
of 2001, Dr. Wilson moved to a 100% teaching assignment as an
assistant professor of anatomy.
