Stricto sensu - Veterinary Medicine

OVERVIEW

The Graduate Degree Program in Technologies Applied to Animals of Regional Interest (PPGTAIR) was created by a faculty group working in the larger field of ​​Veterinary Medicine, but with a wide interface with biological, health and related fields. It started its activities in March 2019 with the two programs, a master's degree and a doctoral degree. The selection process takes place annually. It has experienced faculty members, nationally and internationally renowned.

The Program was conceived with the mission of promoting scientific, technological, and regional innovation development in a sustainable and ethical manner through research activities. Therefore, it seeks to allow the congregation, articulation and adherence to complementary, interdisciplinary themes, correlated with each other, through the Field of Study “Advanced Diagnostics in Animal Health”, which integrates the main objective of developing and applying modern processes within the different branches of Veterinary Medicine. In this context, the Program focuses its efforts on a range of research involving studies with animal-based food technology, which allow microbiological and technical investigation of industrial processes that impact animal and human health, extending to immunopathological and molecular studies of parasites of interest to epidemiology and regional public health. Moreover, it focuses on the improvement of reproductive biotechniques, the genomic study of unconventional animals and genetic improvement of herds that constitute production chains relevant to the regional economy, to approaches for clinical diagnosis of diseases and innovative therapies in animal models, contemplating cell biotechnology and the science of materials.
