Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The 2024 International Forum of Equine Medicine, held under the auspices of the 11th Annual Congress of the Chinese Veterinary Medical Association (CVMA), was hosted by the CVMA Chinese Board of Equine Practitioners (CBEP) and the College of Veterinary Medicine at China Agricultural University. Taking place on 24–25th August in Wuhan, Hubei Province, China, this forum brought together equine medical researchers and practitioners from China, the USA, Austria, Korea, and other regions.
The forum highlighted advancements in various facets of equine medicine, including internal medicine, surgery, sports medicine, reproductive science, and equine welfare. By providing a platform for knowledge exchange and skill enhancement, the forum aimed to promote the development of equine medical education and research in China and foster stronger international collaborations within the equine academic community.
This Special Issue, entitled “The Progress of Equine Medical Research in China and Beyond”, captures the key insights and research presented during the forum. It serves as a comprehensive resource for equine practitioners and researchers worldwide, offering a detailed overview of the current progress in equine medical research, both within China and on the global stage. Additionally, this Special Issue marks the launch of the CBEP program, designed to provide ongoing education and a robust communication platform for Chinese equine practitioners.
