The 2021 Companion Animal Studies conference is now open for registrations.
Virtual event will explore the current state of research and practice in animal-assisted interventions.

The Society for Companion Animal Studies (SCAS) has announced that its 2021 virtual conference is now open for registration.

Bringing together expert speaks from the UK and overseas, the event provides a key opportunity for delegates to discover the current state of research and practice in animal-assisted interventions and how they might be more closely integrated. 

Speakers will address three main client groups: children, older people, and those with mental health problems. There will also be a panel discussion chaired by Emeritus Professor Marie-José Enders-Slegers looking at the integration of research and practice.
