Faith Baxter is the first person in the VCOM-Carolinas Class of 2027 to be published, but her appearance in the national SOMA Research publication, The Future DO, is not your typical research project.

Taylor Rudolph, DO, a graduate of the Edward Via College of Osteopathic Medicine (VCOM) - Carolinas, is not your average physician. With a passion for serving her country and a love for aviation, she has taken her medical career to new heights – quite literally. As a flight surgeon in the United States Navy, Dr. Rudolph plays a crucial role in ensuring the health and safety of aircrew and maintainers, including those involved in high-stakes operations like the Super Bowl flyover.

��TV (VCOM)-Carolinas is proud to announce a significant stride forward in medical education and community health, thanks to a generous grant from the South Carolina Center for Rural and Primary Healthcare. The grant, totaling over $400,000, marks a pivotal moment for our institution, allowing us to expand our outreach and provide innovative training opportunities for future physicians.

Each year in March, future physicians across the globe experience Match Day, a milestone when they learn where and in what specialties they will continue their training in residencies. VCOM students did particularly well on Match Day, as they always do.

Amidst the resounding success of VCOM-Carolinas’ Research Recognition Day, held on campus February 9, emerged a student researcher who, according to the SROY Selection Committee “exemplifies a dedication to osteopathic research, leadership in osteopathic research, professional development, and the embodiment of osteopathic philosophy”: Max Muir.
