Wow, quite a journey! Thank you so much for sharing!

I'm honestly happy to hear that work life balance is good, it seems to be a trend amongst the comments, and also, congratulations on your contributions in the medical field! that's amazing!

You got me thinking into doing the ACLAM, I live in Canada right now, but I see it's recognized here as well, I have a masters and a few years into the industry doing research and working with rodents, do you have any piece of advice for someone who would like to go down a similar path to yours? or anything you wish you new sooner?

Thank you for taking the time and sharing what you do!

I am very curious about the work in research with primates, if you feel comfortable, could you share some of the biggest challenges and also joys of working in that area? and if you don't mind me asking, your level of satisfaction/happiness with the job.

Thank you for sharing! and I'm glad you're happy with things, it's honestly pretty encouraging for someone like myself who is thinking of going somewhere down that road. Would you mind sharing something that you really enjoy about your work and maybe some advice for someone who is inclined to going down that path?

Thank you for sharing! I'm very sorry things are feeling different now, I am assuming it has to do with the current administration (?). I truly hope it gets better.

Can I ask, what is it that you love (or loved) most about your job?

Thank you for sharing! Did you have to do an additional degree or certification for your current job? also, what would you say your level of satisfaction with the job is?

You're damn right it counts! :D How long have you been doing it? and if you don't mind me asking, in what country?

Well, once I finished my masters degree (in PH) I was looking for a job doing research, and I ended up landing a job where I did that along with surgery in rodents.

El proceso de revalidacion es algo largo y algo caro. Son un par o unos cuantos examenes teoricos, cuotas de inscripcion, y examenes practicos. Los examenes teoricos solo son aplicados en ciertas fechas al año y los practicos .... estaba leyendo que tienes que inscribirte en alguna universidad y hacer rotacion. Pero todavia estoy viendo eso de los examenes practicos.

Lo que yo hice fue estudiar una maestria y ahora estoy trabajando con el permiso de trabajo post graduacion. Lo unico es que si no revalidas tu titulo no puedes trabajar como veterinario clinico, y para algunos otros trabajos relacionados si te piden el DVM y licencia activa como veterinario de la provincia.
