Skills Lab Univet

Dear students,

It has been my great pleasure and privilege to work with you to create and grow Skills Lab over the last 4 years. From our first workshops on facebook live from my bedroom (woo lockdown), to our current on-campus lab with over 350 student attendees and 24 workshops this semester. It has been an amazing journey that I was thrilled to be a part of.
Unfortunately, nothing can last forever and my time at Univet has come to a close. I will be leaving over the summer and will not be retuning for the next academic year. Be assured that Skills Lab will be continuing, and we are currently in the process of selecting a new director.
I hope you will all continue to make use of Skills Lab as there is no limit to the value of practical training and hands-on repetition of veterinary skills. I also encourage you to continue learning animal behavior and animal-friendly veterinary handling techniques. Our patients have rich emotional lives and if you're not taking care of the brain you're only doing half a job!

I wish you all the very best of luck for this exam season and for your future veterinary careers!

Best regards,
Dr. Ciara Reynolds, Skills Lab Director
