Annual Scientific Meeting, July 5-7, 2018, Athens, Greece.

Large Animal Programme

The 2019 Large Animal programme will feature four in-depth streams covering advances in arthrology, injury prevention and biological, gastro-intestinal surgery, and foal surgery.

Two parallel streams will focus on bovine orthopaedic surgery and medicine and critical care in surgery.

A new offer in 2018 will be the evidence-based medicine session in which very specific topics and questions will be covered based on currently available scientific data.

The detailed large animal programme can be found > here. The programme is continously being updated.

When planning your days and lectures, the Programme Committee invites you to not only look into your own speciality's programme: Watch out for the little Look outside the box hints in the programme, of which you will find at least one per day in the large animal programme; here the Programme Committee recommends lectures and streams from the small animal programme, which are of interest to large animal delegates, too.
