| Description: | The Ninth International Colic Research Symposium, “The Olympics of Colic Research,” will be hosted by the British Equine Veterinary Association from 15th – 18th June 2008 at the new Liverpool Arena and Conference Centre. The format of the meeting will be similar to that of previous symposia, a mixture of 15-minute oral presentations and two poster sessions. This is a research-focussed meeting and is likely to include sessions on all aspects of equine gastroenterology including epidemiology, parasitology, intestinal motility, endotoxaemia, clinical practice and post-operative survival. The waterfront venue for the Symposium has excellent conference facilities, good access to local hotels and is easily accessible by road, rail and from Liverpool and Manchester International Airports. The International Colic Research Symposium is noted for providing both a high quality scientific programme and a convivial ambience. Both will be recreated in Liverpool in 2008 and BEVA looks forward to welcoming delegates to this unique meeting. Full details of how to register will be sent to all BEVA members in the New Year. |
