Merck Animal Health in partnership with the American Veterinary Medical Foundation has provided 54 scholarships valued at $5,000, through the Merck Animal Health Veterinary Student Scholarship program.

Scott Bormann, Senior Vice-president for Merck Animal Health in North America, stated, “This annual scholarship is especially meaningful to us, given the broad impact it has on veterinary students.”  He added, “We are pleased to support 37 companion animal and 17 food animal veterinary students in 2022.”
