International book shipments to Brazil and Italy
by Bruce Williams March 12, 2026

March 12, 2026

The Foundation is excited at the response to publication of the 5th Fascicle in the series of Tumors of Domestic Animals - Gastrointestinal Tumors. We do want to address some issues in shipping books to two countries - Italy and Brazil. Unfortunately, due to circumstances beyond our control, we have been unable to get books to their destination in these two countries. When shipped to Italy or Brazil, they appear to be not clearing customs. Some are returned, and some not, and in many cases, are returned in unsellable condition (whereupon we have to dump them.) This means the Foundation is out the price of shipping and the price of the damaged books). At this time, we will only fill orders that are sent to a university address (Department of Pathology, diagnostic laboratory, etc.) and only for a single book. If we are successful with a single book shipment, we will be happy to send followup orders of additional books to that address (realizing that there are no guarantees - but shipping to home addresses appears to not be working in any instance.) We will also provide a tracking number to the purchaser so that they can better track the books. We understand and share the frustration of anyone who has unsuccessfully tried to purchase books in these countries. We hoe that you understand that the Foundation has no control over a) the ultimate delivery of these books - our control ends once the books are handed over to the USPS or Federal Express at which time we pay for their shipment, and b) we have no control over the cost of shipping - we pay the shipping price that you are given by the website when we take the books to the post. We aren't making any money off of shipping (when you factor in the handling costs of packing the books and taking them to the shipper, we actually lose a bit on the deal.) We heartily appreciate the efforts of folks in these countries who are thinking outside the box on this (shipping to Aunt Sadie elsewhere in Europe or South America where delivery is a bit more robust, coordinating delivery with attendance at a meeting elsewhere, etc.) we are certainly willing to work with you on this. bruce

DTF Newsletter March 2026
by Francisco Alejandro Uzal March 1, 2026

March 1, 2026

Dear colleagues It is my honor to present you the March issue of the Davis-Thompson Foundation newsletter, prepared as usual by our brilliant Managing Editors Jeann Leal and Javier Asin. I am very excited to announce that after an impasse of a few years, a new volume in our series "Surgical pathology of tumors of domestic animals" (Volume 5: Tumors of the gastrointestinal tract; John Munday Editor) is ready and available for purchase in our bookstore. Thank you John and collaborators!!! And volume 6 (Tumors of the nervous system; Dan Rissi Editor) will become available in the next few months. As always, the pages of this newsletter come full of free or low cost training opportunities, face to face and on line, all over the world, in English, Portuguese and Spanish (Mandarin seminar series coming up soon!). Amongst these, if you are looking to refine and strengthen your necropsy skills, there are two great hands-on opportunities that I want to highlight: 1- Necropsy course at the University of Pennsylvania on March 21-22, mainly designed to prepare veterinarians for the ECFVG's CPE exam but also valuable for anyone seeking to enhance their necropsy proficiency. 2- Ruminant necropsy workshop course at University of Nebraska on April 20-21, aimed at trainees and veterinarians who need to brush up their ruminant pathology and necropsy skills. Also, keep in mind that registration for the fantastic series "Veterinary Introductory Pathology" by Kelsey Fiddes series closes March 11. Last but not least, we share the link to "Archivo Veterinario del Uruguay", formerly "Archivo Veterinario del Este", a great newsletter prepared by our colleague Fernando Dutra. Although this document is in Spanish, it has many excellent images and, as I said before, I am sure that everybody will be able to appreciate that "pathology language" regardless of the language of the text. Looking forward to seeing you in one or more of our training activities. Kind regards Francisco Uzal, DVM, MSc, PhD, Dipl. ACVP Chief Executive Officer Davis-Thompson Foundation Ph: 951 751 0027 E-mail: fauzal(a)ucdavis.edu<mailto:fauzal@ucdavis.edu> www.davisthompsonfoundation.org<https://www.davisthompsonfoundation.org/> [https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1oticUQZYjDPU-1vMA4wHKvLb2SScHV-J]
