University of Florida doctoral candidate Anje Bauck, DVM, received the 2017 American Association of Equine Practitioners (AAEP) Foundation Past Presidents’ Research Fellow for her research into gastrointestinal physiology and equine colic surgery.

Bauck was recognized Nov. 19 prior to the Frank J. Milne State-of-the-Art Lecture at the AAEP’s 63rd Annual Convention, in San Antonio, Texas.

The $5,000 grant is awarded annually to a doctoral or residency student who has made significant progress in the field of equine health care research. Bauck also received a $500 stipend to support her travel to San Antonio.
