Equine Medicine Symposium
"Lameness and Performance: Keeping Your Horse In Stride "
May 16, 2009

This year's SCAAEP annual symposium is on May 16, 2009, and will cover a variety of lameness and performance-related talks and wetlabs conducted by UC Davis faculty and residents for the general horse owner. Your registration gives you access to all the lectures and wet labs (listed below), as well as breakfast, lunch, symposium proceedings and an entry into the raffle for great prizes!

Proceeds from the symposium will go to help fund wetlabs and other activities, as well as to help send students to the annual AAEP Convention in December (in 2008, several students attended in San Diego, CA) and when possible, to the annual AAEP Opportunities in Equine Practice seminar for 3rd year veterinary students.
