Head: Larry J. Suva

The Department of Veterinary Physiology and Pharmacology is the only department of its kind in the state of Texas with a rich tradition of excellence in education, research and outreach to impact both veterinary and human medicine.  The department has expertise in toxicology, reproductive science, cardiovascular science, tissue regeneration and bone biology.

The primary research focus areas within the department are extramurally funded, internationally renowned and significantly contribute to improving human and veterinary health.  Extensive research collaborations with the Colleges of Agriculture and Life Sciences, Arts and Sciences, Engineering, and the Schools of Public Health, and Education and Human Development; as well as with the Texas A&M University Health Science Center, Texas A&M AgriLife Research, and the Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station provide exceptional resources that enhance all departmental research efforts.

Our faculty, many of whom are leaders in their fields and key contributors to the scientific and educational literature, are also strong mentors that form the basis for a strong graduate research and education experience. Most importantly, they are accessible, focused and student-friendly with a deep understanding of the art and science of education and research.
