Equine Sports Medicine Center

The Equine Sports Medicine Center (ESMC) at Purdue University is dedicated to the education and support of Indiana horsemen and veterinarians through the study of the equine athlete.

Since its opening in April 1996 the center has offered comprehensive evaluations for equine patients suffering from poor performance, pioneered leading-edge equine research, provided the highest level of training for future veterinarians and offered quality continuing education to veterinarians and horsemen.

Most clients are referred to, or seek out, the Center because of poor performance of an equine athlete. View how the Center defines poor performance.
