Scope of this position

The successful candidate will focus on the training in morphological pathology of farm, companion & zoo animals during the first year, which can also account for an internship. At the end of the first year, we will jointly evaluate the candidate's interests and career goals. The training can then continue along one of two pathways:

• Residency in Veterinary Anatomic Pathology - up to three additional years of structured diagnostic training and preparation for the board examination of the European College of Veterinary Pathologists (ECVP); or

Both pathways provide structured preparation for the ECVP board examination. Candidates pursuing the combined Residency/PhD program will have the opportunity to conduct research in areas including cancer therapy resistance, DNA repair, and host-pathogen interactions within the collaborative research environment of the University of Bern.
