Best regards Paco Uzal A few wet lab spots have been reopened. 2025 DTF Racehorse Necropsy Workshop, September 18th to 20th Join us in beautiful Lexington, KY this September for the third annual Davis Thompson Foundation Racehorse Necropsy Workshop.

The workshop is meant to provide a strong foundation for the performance of racehorse postmortem exams, with opportunities for great networking to yield a strong support network. Our goal is to answer the one question that everyone has: what do they need from me? Thursday and Friday didactic sessions are open to veterinarians, veterinary students, and laboratory support staff. The Saturday wet lab is limited to 20 participants, with preference given to pathologists and pathology residents. Registration is free thanks to the generous support of the Horseracing Integrity and Safety Authority. https://davisthompsonfoundation.org/event/racehorse-necropsy-workshop-2/ Dr. Laura A.

Davis-Thompson Foundation Newsletter: June
by Francisco Alejandro Uzal June 1, 2025

June 1, 2025

Dear colleagues Welcome to the June issue of the Davis-Thompson Foundation newsletter, with the compliments of our outstanding Managing Editors, Javier Asin and Jeann Leal. Thank you, Javier and Jeann! Please peruse these pages to find a very large number of training opportunities around the world. Just to mention a few, CLIIC is starting next week and Just in Time Mock exams is coming soon. More information about these, and many more training events is available at: https://davisthompsonfoundation.org/events-calendar/ Roger Kelly, University of Queensland, Australia, continues generously sharing his enormous expertise, and this month he sent us another a great article for our Expert's corner on collection and submission of skin specimens for histopathology. Thank you again, Roger!!! Something new this year will be a Latin Comparative Pathology Group (LCPG; the Latin American Division of the DTF) session at the annual meeting of AAVLD, which we hope will become a permanent feature of that meeting. This year, the session will be on screwworm, a disease that is moving north at a fast pace and threatens to enter the US soon. If you are attending the AAVLD meeting, join us for this inaugural great session. And of course, the traditional LCPG session at the annual meeting of ACVP has already been scheduled. And at risk of repeating myself, I am closing my message by thanking our wonderful volunteers from all over the world. As we have said it before: nothing of what we do would be possible without your selfless dedication! Thank you! Warm regards, Francisco Uzal, DVM, MSc, PhD, Dipl.
