In addition, this seminar is pre-approved for credit under Maintenance of certification by the ACVP for 2 credits per half day. Lectures will be available for registrants to view after the seminars have completed, so if you are working that day, don't fear - you can watch them later. We have plenty of seats still available and you won't find more easily obtainable (or less expensive CE anywhere!

May 8 Webinar - "Stories from Zoos and Aquaria"
by Bruce Williams May 1, 2020

May 1, 2020

Make sure you register for our upcoming "Free Friday Seminar" at noon, Friday, 8 May - "Stories and Cases from Zoos and Aquarias" This lecture is sponsored by the Davis-Thompson Foundation will be delivered by Dr. Carlos Rodriguez, DVM, DACVP of Disney Animal Kingdom of Florida. Pathology plays a crucial role within the animal care teams at many zoological institutions and aquaria. Much more than a comprehensive program for disease diagnosis, established zoological pathology programs can shape medical intervention, collection planning, exhibit design, quarantine and risk mitigation protocols, capacity building and can even be an influential driver in many conservation programs. This conference is by no means intended as a comprehensive review of zoo or aquatic pathology but a collection of interesting and unusual cases that highlight the diversity of infectious and non-infectious diseases accrued from over a decade in this incredible field. Register in advance for this webinar: https://us02web.zoom.us/…/register/WN_c4B2HNbDQyC91W5TM3S1gg <https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_c4B2HNbDQyC91W5TM3S1gg?fbclid=I…> After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the webinar. This lecture is pre-approved for 1 credit toward ACVP Maintenance of Certification. Due to the large number of attendees, and the fact that this lecture has not accredited for continuing education by the Foundation, certificates of attendance will not be available. <https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10158566519632873&set=gm.1597901890…>

by Bruce Williams April 27, 2020

April 27, 2020

The 65th Annual Pathology of Lab Animals Course is on, and this year, will be a telecourse! (Now there are no excuses for you NOT to participate). 5 days of lectures on the pathology and diseases of laboratory animals - rodents, non-human primates, laboratory fish, rabbits, minipigs, ferrets, and a mock exam! It's a great way to review classic diseases and get updated on the latest ones! The tuition is half of the in-person 2019 course - only $300 for Foundation individual, university, and corporate members, and $400 for non-members (this comes with a one-year membership in the Foundation). And handouts galore! (Some say this is the best part of the course - with great reference material you will use forever.) This course has been submitted for (but not yet approved) for 32 hours of continuing educations in juridisictions which recongnize RACE. This course has also been pre-approved for credit for ACVP Maintenance of Certification for 2 hours per half-day attended. These lectures will not be posted online following this course, so if you want this fantastic review, you had better clear August 3-7 on your calendar!
