Lightning talks, a chance to talk with veterinary experts in 15 specialties and two amazing keynote speakers! Those were just a few of the highlights at the 2026 Veterinary Scholars Symposium, which NC State hosted this month for more than 700 students and faculty members from across the world.

Students in the program spent the summer conducting research under the guidance of faculty mentors and presented their findings at the symposium. More than 40 universities were represented!

A Combined Degree Colloquium with more than 40 dual-degree DVM/Ph.D. students presenting their research preceded the symposium.

“The enthusiasm around NC State during the events was contagious,” said Dr. Joshua Stern, NC State’s associate dean for research and graduate studies.

ICYMI: Dr. Joshua Stern, NC State College of Veterinary Medicine’s associate dean of research and graduate studies, appeared on the Veterinary Vertex Podcast this summer at AVMA Convention 2026. He’s an expert on veterinary cardiology and genetics, and he shared his perspectives on scientific writing, both as an author and as a reviewer.

Stern also explained how his background shaped his research interests, gave his opinion on the most important areas for future cardiovascular research and stressed the importance of clinician research.

Since the interview, NC State hosted this year’s Veterinary Scholars Symposium, where veterinary students presented the summer research they conducted under the guidance of faculty mentors. In line with his strong belief in the importance of clinician research, Stern himself mentored three veterinary scholars this year.

Since NC State welcomed its first veterinary students 45 years ago, we’ve sent thousands of new veterinarians into the world to make an impact. Now, we’re welcoming them back to campus as we celebrate an all-class reunion! Together, we’re reminiscing, playing and learning.

Our alumni have come from as far away as Nevada and South Dakota and represent graduating classes going back to the earliest years of the college. While they’re here looking back at their time at NC State, they have some advice for the new class of 2030:

Willie Smith, class of 1986: “Get to know the professors outside the classroom. They have a lot of knowledge that's accessible. There's a lot of value there.”

Paul Whippo, class of 1988: “Veterinary medicine gives you the greatest opportunity to be a generalist of any profession I’ve heard of. As you go into your profession, learn and find your niche.”

Are AI-enabled stethoscopes leading the pack in diagnosing heart health? A new NC State study found that the technology hasn't quite made it that far. While the AI-assisted technology perfectly matched the abilities of fourth-year veterinary students in diagnosing dogs with heart murmurs, it underperformed compared with experienced clinicians, and it more drastically missed the mark in other areas.

Clinicians determined that only 24 of the 54 dogs in the study had an arrhythmia. Meanwhile, the AI technology couldn’t confirm whether any of the dogs were in the clear. With cats, it missed more than 90% of the murmurs detected by clinicians, detecting only two out of 22.

It's not all bad news, though. Cardiology resident Jake Johnson said the stethoscope captures a "genuinely good" ECG trace.
