VetPartners has announced a £100,000 fund for its team members undertaking research projects.

It said the aim is to “improve the evidence base for clinical decision-making by increasing the amount of research across VetPartners’ practices”.

The fund is open to VetPartners employees working in clinical settings in either the UK or Europe.

Director Dr Rachel Dean said: “We are very excited to launch this fund that will benefit our team members and our businesses, whilst improving patient outcomes, care of animals and experience for our clients.
