Abstracts Due September 1 for NA PRRS Symposium

August 12, 2015 — 

The "2015 North American PRRS Symposium: Emerging and Foreign Animal Diseases" continues to focus on PRRS, the most costly disease to ever face the swine industry. However, to meet the needs of stakeholders, the conference has expanded to address other contemporary diseases of concern. This year’s meeting, slated for December 5-6 at the Intercontinental Hotel in Chicago, will include translational and basic research on emerging and foreign animal diseases, such as porcine epidemic diarrhea (PED), porcine circovirus-associated disease (PCVAD), African swine fever (ASF), classical swine fever (CSF) and other high-consequence diseases of swine. Scientific topics include disease control, vaccines, pathogenesis, diagnostics, epidemiology and host genetics. To submit an abstract for presentation (due September 1), see the submission instructions at https://ksvma.site-ym.com/?Abstracts. Registration is now open!
