Vets Uncovered 2027
Vets Uncovered has become a much loved annual tradition for fourth year North Queensland Veterinary Science students. Since 2015, each cohort has stepped outside their comfort zone, stripped off with their mates and created a tasteful and cheeky calendar to commemorate their graduating year. While getting in front of the camera can be a little nerve wracking, Vets Uncovered gives us the chance to have some fun, bring our cohort together and take a break from the academic pressures of veterinary school. Over the years, it has become something of a rite of passage, creating plenty of memories along the way while also raising funds for our graduation ball and, importantly, supporting a cause that means something to our cohort..
For Vets Uncovered 2027, we are incredibly proud to support the Ovarian Cancer Research Foundation (OCRF) in memory of our dear colleague, Tina Sellen, who passed away from ovarian cancer. Tina’s loss has had a profound impact on those who knew and worked with her, and supporting ovarian cancer research is a meaningful way for our cohort to honour her memory. Ovarian cancer is the most lethal gynaecological cancer in Australia, yet research into the disease remains significantly underfunded. Funds raised through Vets Uncovered 2027 will contribute to vital research across the OCRF’s key areas of focus, including earlier detection, managing recurrence, developing new and improved treatments, and prevention.What began as a cheeky veterinary student tradition has grown into something much more meaningful. A chance to celebrate our time together, support important research and hopefully make a difference beyond our graduating class
