| | STAR Program: Students Training in Advanced Research
The
STAR Program is an initiative of the School of Veterinary Medicine
at UC Davis to coordinate and offer funding opportunities on a
competitive basis to veterinary students to experience veterinary and
biomedical research during the summer months. In recent years
several students have completed STAR projects specifically related to
anesthesia and pain management. The U.C. Davis anesthesia
department faculty have been supportive of these projects and have
acted as mentors to a number of students. Recent pain managment
projects include the following:
Project:
Evaluation of Ketamine Used for Analgesia in Surgical Patients
Student: Kelby Simison
Mentor: Dr. Bruno Pypendop
Project:
Investigating the Clinical Use of Gabapentin for Analgesia in Cats
Student: Patrick Reid
Mentor: Dr. Jan E. Ilkiw
If
you are interested in a pain management related STAR project and would
like more information, you can contact any of the students listed above
or one of the anesthesia faculty to discuss your ideas.
