Last Chance to Submit Abstracts
The deadline is looming for submission of clinical abstracts for BSAVA 2012.

Next week marks the last chance to submit Clinical Research Abstracts for BSAVA Congress 2012.

The impending deadline for the abstracts, which form an important part of Congress, is Thursday 20th October 2011.

Clinical Research Abstracts are 15-minute presentations of studies from across the world that have been submitted to BSAVA and scrutinised by a group of experts. The audience is made up from the varied corners of academia, private practice and industry.

Anyone can submit an abstract and BSAVA is especially keen to see more from vets in general practice. Any topic relevant to small animal practice can be covered.

In April 2012, the British Small Animal Veterinary Association will host the WSAVA/FECAVA/BSAVA Congress at the ICC in Birmingham. It will be the biggest veterinary congress ever held in Britain and will include the world's most impressive selection of speakers, a huge variety of subjects for vets, nurses and practice staff, as well as an extensive exhibition and social programme.

To find out more about the congress and the process of submitting a CRA, click here or email h.field@bsava.com.
