The University of Kentucky Board of Trustees recently approved the official naming of a research facility at UK’s Maine Chance Equine Campus as the Dr. Walter W. Zent Mare Reproductive Health Facility to honor Zent, DVM, Dipl. ACT (hon.), a veterinarian and former partner at Hagyard Equine Medical Institute, in Lexington, Ky. Zent served on the Gluck Equine Research Foundation’s Board of Directors from 2000 to 2012 and as chair from 2006 to 2012.

“The college is honored to have Walter Zent’s name on this research facility. Walter is a successful veterinarian who has not only used research information from the Gluck Equine Research Center but has contributed to the research,” said Nancy Cox, PhD, associate dean for research in UK’s College of Agriculture, Food and Environment, Kentucky Agricultural Experiment Station director and administrative leader for UK’s Ag Equine Programs. “He is a top-notch field veterinarian and a respected contributor to new research-based practices. Not only that, he has been a supporter of the UK’s Department of Veterinary Science for many decades including a distinguished leader of the Gluck Foundation Board of Directors.”
