Cornell University’s College of Veterinary Medicine offers an exceptional environment for reproductive physiology research, integrating diverse clinical populations with advanced molecular and computational tools. Through the Cornell University College of Veterinary Medicine and Cornell University Hospital for Animals, faculty have direct access to equine, food animal, and small animal models to study diverse areas of animal reproduction. The Cornell Reproductive Sciences Center and the Tri-Repro Symposium foster interdisciplinary collaboration, while the Baker Institute for Animal Health provides complementary strengths in molecular and translational science. Together, these resources support integrative, system-level approaches that directly translate reproductive biology into clinical impact.
Cornell University embraces diversity and seeks candidates who will create a climate that attracts people of all races, nationalities, and genders. We strongly encourage women and underrepresented minorities to apply.
