Elizabeth R. Magden, D.V.M, M.S., DACLAM
Department of Comparative Medicine, Division of Discovery Science
About Dr. Elizabeth R. Magden
Dr. Magden’s interest in nonhuman primate medicine started when she traveled to Borneo in 1997 to participate in a wildlife program directed by Dr. Birute Galdikas. She was inspired by this experience and following graduation from Grinnell College, she became a behavioral research assistant at the Primate Foundation of Arizona working with chimpanzees. Dr. Magden learned about the role animals serve to benefit biomedical research and the importance of caring and compassionate staff which led her to obtain her DVM in 2008, followed by a laboratory animal residency at Colorado State University from 2008-2011. She completed a MS degree in Microbiology and obtained training in veterinary acupuncture and laser therapy through the Medical Acupuncture for Veterinarians course in 2011. This advanced training has allowed her to provide a higher level of care, and publish literature that demonstrates how these complementary techniques alleviate pain and improve the welfare of nonhuman primates. Dr. Magden completed a nonhuman primate fellowship position at UT MD Anderson Cancer Center, Michale E. Keeling Center for Comparative Medicine and Research from 2011-2013 and became a board certified diplomate of the American College for Laboratory Animal Medicine (DACLAM) in 2013. She is currently the Attending Veterinarian and an Associate Professor in the Department of Comparative Medicine at MD Anderson Cancer Center, and the Project Director of the Chimpanzee Care Center (CCC). She also serves as the primary veterinarian for the SPF Baboon Research Resource (SPFBRR).
