Grafton, Massachusetts
March 30th, 2003

Tufts Veterinary School will be honoring the late Dr. Annelisa Kilbourn
with a Memorial Reception.  A tragic plane crash on November 2, 2002
took the life of Dr. Kilbourn when she was returning to Gabon to
continue her wildlife work there.  Employed by the Wildlife Conservation
Society and SOS Rhino, Dr. Kilbourn was internationally known for
establishing that Ebola virus was a serious threat to gorillas in the
wild.  Fearless and fluent in seven languages, Annelisa excelled at
conservation field work, and other projects she led involved black
rhinos, white rhinos, and Sumatran rhinos, orangutans, elephants, wild
dogs, and lemurs.  Dr. Kilbourn, a 1996 Tufts Vet School graduate, was
35.

Dr. William B. Karesh, head of the Wildlife Conservation Society Field
Veterinary Program, will deliver the first annual Annelisa M. Kilbourn
Memorial Lecture during Tufts’ Conservation Medicine Symposium.

The reception will take place in the Bernice Barbour Wildlife building
from 4:30-6pm

Symposium attendees are requested to make a $10 donation to the Annelisa
M. Kilbourn Conservation Medicine Fund.  The Memorial Reception is
free.  For more information, contact Kathy Tuxbury,
