KENNET SQUARE \u2014 Agriculture Secretary Russell Redding and University of Pennsylvania Dean of Veterinary Medicine Andrew M. Hoffman are celebrating another milestone for Pennsylvania\u2019s $132 billion agriculture industry, breaking ground on a new, $94 million laboratory at the New Bolton Center, the large-animal campus of the University of Pennsylvania School of Veterinary Medicine (Penn Vet).<\/p>\n
\u201cScience continues to reveal critical connections between animal health, human health, and the health of our environment,\u201d Redding said. \u201cPenn Vet has been at the center of discovery that deepens and reinforces those connections. Supporting Penn Vet\u2019s cutting-edge research, diagnostic testing, and quality animal care strengthens Pennsylvania\u2019s capacity to detect and prevent disease, respond quickly in crisis, and continue growing and leading in animal agriculture. This expansion is more proof that investments by the Shapiro administration are feeding Pennsylvania\u2019s economic future and protecting Pennsylvania\u2019s rich agricultural heritage.\u201d<\/p>\n
