Envirovet aims to create a force of scientists with unique perspectives, knowledge, skills, and expertise required to implement an efficient approach to ecosystem repair that will enable synchronous gains in wildlife, domestic animal, human, and economic health. Each participant in Envirovet Summer Institute 2009 will engage in comprehensive classroom, laboratory, and field interactions. Individuals with determination, stamina, sense of purpose, keen intelligence, and capacity to envision and pursue positive outcomes in the face of incomplete knowledge and institutional inertia are invited to apply for admission to the 2009 Envirovet Summer Institute.
Each participant will be linked to cutting-edge leaders in a wide variety of relevant disciplines. A strong emphasis will be placed on collaborations to restore self-sustaining wildlife populations by addressing issues where natural areas interface with areas devoted to agriculture, forestry, mining, urban development, and other forms of human enterprise.
The Envirovet Summer Institute is divided into two sessions. The first session is entitled "Terrestrial and Aquatic Wildlife and Ecosystem Health Issues and Techniques for the Developed World With Outreach to Developing Countries." Components of this session will take place in Florida and Georgia. The second session is entitled "Terrestrial and Aquatic Wildlife and Ecosystem Health Issues and Techniques for the Developing World" and will take place in a developing country, Tanzania in 2009.
