At Envol Biomedical, we believe the highest quality science begins with exceptional care. Our Veterinary Medicine team is central to that mission—providing 24-hour oversight, compassionate expertise, and an unwavering commitment to animal welfare. This summer, Envol proudly welcomed Christa Cheatham and Judith Meriwether to our growing veterinary team, reinforcing our ongoing investment in excellence across every level of animal care.
A Shared Passion for Animal Welfare and Science
Christa and Judith bring unique perspectives shaped by diverse experiences in veterinary medicine and biomedical research. Both were drawn to Envol by its reputation for integrity, teamwork, and innovation in non-human primate care.
“I was really impressed by the level of dedication I saw from day one,” Christa shared. “From the behavior team to the vet staff, everyone here genuinely cares about the animals. You can see that commitment in every interaction.”
Judith echoed that sentiment, adding, “Every level of this organization communicates with each other—from the people maintaining the environments to the leadership team. That level of transparency and shared purpose is something special.”
Building on a Culture of Collaboration and Commitment
Envol’s veterinary team includes individuals from a wide range of medical and surgical backgrounds, including human clinical experience that translates directly into advanced animal care. This diversity fosters constant learning and collaboration—an environment where expertise is shared daily and where veterinary medicine meets innovation.
The result is a team that works together seamlessly to support studies, troubleshoot complex procedures, and ensure that every animal receives the highest standard of care. As Judith put it, “We’ll work harder than anybody out there.”
Advancing Envol’s Commitment to Quality
Envol’s investment in expanding its Veterinary Medicine program reflects the company’s broader commitment to excellence in preclinical research. Around-the-clock veterinary coverage ensures immediate attention to animal health and welfare—providing sponsors with confidence that their studies are conducted under the most rigorous and compassionate conditions possible.
“The best results come from healthy, well-cared-for animals,” Christa said. “Our goal is to ensure that’s always the case, so sponsors receive data they can trust.”
Looking Ahead
With the addition of Christa and Judith, Envol continues to strengthen its foundation of scientific integrity and compassionate care. Their expertise, energy, and shared passion for animal health reflect the core values that define Envol Biomedical—and will help carry that mission forward as we continue to grow.
