# What is VetDD?

VetDD is a veterinary disease repository designed primarily for students in the veterinary field. It provides categorised, section-by-section information on over 100 animal diseases — covering causes, clinical signs, gross pathology, pathophysiology, diagnosis, and more.

This manner of deployment, interface, and the backend database hosting all the information is simply an aggregation of the various veterinary diseases and symptoms veterinarians will come across in their profession. By providing this aggregated layer, the hope is to ease the complexity of navigating the fragmented nature of academia that presides the medical (& veterinary) industry today.

A full walkthrough of the app has been provided in a video format below.
