AAEP bids ‘Aloha’ to 100 practitioners at Resort Symposium
Against blue skies and turquoise Pacific waters, 100 prac- titioners immersed themselves in sun and science Jan. 28-30 at the AAEP’s 17th Annual Resort Symposium on the Big Island of Hawaii.
The meeting integrated a laid-back atmosphere that featured no shortage of sandals and Hawaiian shirts with an educational program that presented new diagnostics, treatments and techniques in the areas of dermatology, reproduction and joint therapies over the course of three half-day sessions.
If a tropical midwinter respite from practice sounds good about now, pay attention to this space in coming months. Details surrounding the 2016 Resort Symposium are being finalized and will be announced soon. Rest assured, however: participation in the meeting will require sunscreen.
Bayer Healthcare Animal Health has been the sole sponsor of the Resort Symposium since its inception. The AAEP thanks Bayer for its continued support of equine continuing education.
