Programme European College of Animal Reproduction First Symposium 4 - 6 July 2019 n o i t c Vienna, Austria u d o www.ecarcollege.org r p e R l a E m u i r n o A p f ea o n College Vetmeduni Vienna Campus Map Welcome to Vienna Dear colleagues and friends, I would like to welcome you all to the first ever ECAR symposium. ECAR as organisation has existed now for over two decades and is growing every year. This year is the first year that we have our own symposium which is very exciting. The idea of ECARs own symposium goes back a long time and to see this coming to fruition is very exciting. I would like to hereby thank all of those who have put their time and effort into it, especially the local organisers here in Vienna. The aim of this first dedicated ECAR symposium is to get evidence base and comparative discussions going between diplomates as well as residents of all different subspecies. After all: all animals reproduce! Or…they don’t… either way we all end up dealing with the trial and tribulations around it and sometimes the answer to a problem or case could come from a colleague that usually looks at a completely different species. I hope you all have a (re) productive meeting! Marijke Beltman ECAR president 1 2 We are grateful for generous support of the ECAR 2019 Symposium Silver Sponsors Bronze Sponsors Regular Sponsors 3 4 July Welcome Reception at Vetmeduni Campus
