This course is designed to teach attendees how to describe gross and microscopic lesions in a variety of major organs in numerous animal species. Both written and oral descriptive techniques will be taught. The course will also include lectures on interpretation and description of electron micrographs and immunohistochemical preparations, the correlation of gross, microscopic, cytologic and clinicopathologic data, and a review of basic molecular techniques. Practice tests (gross and microscopic) will be given and graded to provide feedback. Microscopes will be provided, and gross lesions will be demonstrated by means of digital images.

The Gross course, now in its 40th year, covers the major diseases of domestic and exotic species. Over four days, and utilizing thousands of excellent gross images, faculty will focus on the identification of common diseases of these species from its gross appearance, salient diagnostic features of each, and the formation of appropriate morphologic and differential diagnosis. This course is appropriate for practicing veterinary pathologists, pathology residents, and diagnosticians working with animals.

The IAHAIO Conference (HAB block 2013 sponsored by AAH-ABV)/AVMA Convention will provide an exciting opportunity for those working in HAI research and practice to share their latest findings and program outcomes. They will serve as a source of renewal for those who have been working in the field for some time, and as a source of inspiration for those newly joining or contemplating entry into the field. It will stimulate new collaborative projects through dynamic communication opportunities, and provide increased awareness among the public of the importance of HAI work. What sets these conferences apart from any other HAI conference is the merging of investigators with those working in HAI practice and the veterinary medicine field, with the express purpose of stimulating dialog and listening between the groups. These conversations are vitally important to help move the HAI field in unanticipated and creative directions.

Animal science is a multidisciplinary field that not only studies the biology of animals but also concerned with the science and business of animal production and management. The food industry needs to always focus on sustaining the demands of a growing world population and their rapidly changing patterns of diet. In order to achieve this goal, animal scientists must aim at developing new technologies to make food production more efficient, safe, nutritious, and abundant.

It is with great pleasure we invite you to participate in the 12th International Symposium “Ecology of Aphidophaga” which will be held first time in Belgrade, Serbia from 9th to 13th September 2013.  This continues a series of symposia begun with one organized by Prof. Ivo Hodek (Institute of Entomology, Czech Academy of Sciences) in the former Czechoslovakia in 1965.  Ever since, Aphidophaga meetings have offered a unique international forum for discussions of ecological and behavioural interactions among aphid natural enemies and their prey populations.  Recently, climatic changes are leading to regional changes in the pest status some aphid species and the appearance of others as newly invasive pests.  Aphid predators, parasitoids and pathogens are increasingly regarded as valuable groups for biological control of aphids, whether invasive or otherwise.  Widespread resistance of aphids to insecticides, coupled with increasing public appreciation of the generally negative health and environmental impacts of these materials, continues to drive interest in aphid biological control research.  These efforts, in turn, hinge on advancing research into fundamental aspects of the biology and ecology of aphid natural enemies in both natural and managed agricultural landscapes.

SEEVAD is organising its second scientific symposium at Vetagro-Sup, the prestigious Veterinary School of Lyon; deeply involved in behavioural issues and at the international intersection of veterinarian exchanges. Internationally recognized scientific speakers will present on a diverse range of topics bringing exciting new research and knowledge to the area of “cognition & human-animal interactions”.
Scientific progress enables us to have a better understanding of how animal perceive their world and how they process such information. Such knowledge derived from innovative research enables us to have a better understanding of and approach to behavioural issues and disorders. Fundamental and applied ethology have benefitted from cognitive studies.
High quality plenary sessions will introduce numerous research presentation complimented by a poster exhibition about the latest research in the field of companion animal behaviour.
A roundtable session on “What society is expecting from animals living close to humans as pets or for human entertainment” will bring together qualified speakers from different fields. Two student prizes will be awarded: for the best poster and the best talk. A reception ceremony under the gastronomic auspices of Lyon will bring us together on the Saturday night.
