AASV Industrial Partners submissions due October 1

September 11, 2006 — AASV Staff

The American Association of Swine Veterinarians invites submissions for the Industrial Partners portion of the 38th AASV Annual Meeting, to be held in Orlando, Florida in March. This is an opportunity for commercial companies to make brief presentations of a technical, educational nature to members of the AASV. Submissions are due October 1.

This year, a poster session has been added to provide an additional opportunity for companies to share their research and information, while the number of sessions for oral presentation has been reduced from three to two. All presentations - oral and poster - will be published in the proceedings of the meeting.

As in the past, the two oral sessions will consist of a series of 15-minute presentations scheduled from 1:00 to 5:30 pm on Sunday afternoon, March 4. The poster session will take place on the same day. Poster authors will be required to be stationed with their poster from 12:00 noon until 1:00 pm, and the posters will remain on display throughout the afternoon for viewing by meeting attendees.

Restricted program space necessitates a limit on the number of presentations per company. Companies that are members of the Journal of Swine Health and Production Industry Support Council (listed on the inside front cover of JSHAP) may submit two topics for oral presentation. All other companies may submit one topic for oral presentation. Each company may submit one additional topic for poster presentation. All topics must represent information not previously presented at the AASV annual meeting or published in the meeting proceedings.

Topic titles, a brief description/abstract of the presentation content, and presenter information (name, address, telephone and fax numbers, email address) must be received in the AASV office by October 1, 2006. Please identify whether the submission is intended for oral or poster presentation. Send to: Commercial Sessions, AASV, 902 1st Avenue, Perry, Iowa, 50220; Fax: (515) 465-3832; E-mail: aasv@aasv.org.

Authors will be notified of their acceptance by October 16, 2006, and must submit the complete paper for publication in the meeting proceedings by November 15, 2006. Companies failing to submit papers in a timely manner will not be eligible for future participation in these sessions.
