MeetingsVeterinary Forensic Pathology13-14 July 2015 University of Bologna – Faculty of Veterinary Medicine – Ozzano dell’Emilia In today’s society, where animal rights are of increasing importance to both the general public and the legal system, forensic veterinary pathology is an emerging discipline that also contributes to the investigation of crime scenes involving animals. This 2-day course covers a variety of relevant aspects of modern veterinary forensic pathology, from the gross post mortem examination, including documentation and histology, to forensic entomology and molecular techniques. Making use of numerous case studies, Udo Hetzel and Lorenzo Ressel, veterinary pathologists with many years of practical experience in forensic pathology between them, will present the topic, supported by John McGarry, University of Liverpool, an expert in forensic entomology, and Werner Hecht, University of Giessen, a geneticist with a specific interest in molecular forensics. The Programme Day 1 Day 2 Introduction: aims and scope of forensic pathology Collection of evidence: equipment and measurements, the forensic necropsy, documentation and report Molecular forensics: species and sex determination, individual determination and parentage testing, sample acquisition (Werner Hecht) Ante and post mortem injuries, wound dating and pathological determination of time after death Forensic entomology (John McGarry) Neglect Physical trauma Thermal and electrical injuries This course is open to all ECVP and ESVP members! For ECVP and/or ESVP members, a €200 registration fee applies.

MeetingsA One health approach through multidisciplinary collaboration Friday 15 May 20155 CPD Credits To be held at The Royal Society of Medicine, 1 Wimpole Street, London W1G 0AE High levels of antibiotic resistance are emerging worldwide and this resistance is jeopardising our ability to treat common infections in animals and humans. In order to address this global threat a concerted effort between the medical and veterinary professions is urgently required. The aim of this engaging and informative programme draws upon one of the goals of the UK five year Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) Strategy (2013 to 2018) to improve the knowledge and understanding of AMR through cross-professional collaboration in human and veterinary medicine. The programme will progress from providing an overview of the AMR Strategy to a comparative review of the incidence, mechanisms and drivers of resistance in animals and humans, before moving on to examining examples of good antimicrobial prescribing in medical and veterinary practice. It is hoped that this symposium will be of interest and relevance to veterinary surgeons, medical practitioners, medical and veterinary microbiologists, infectious disease physicians and clinical and veterinary scientists.
