23-25 January 2015
On behalf of the BSA organizing committee I am very happy to invite you to participate in this exciting,
yearly small animal veterinary meeting with focus on small animal surgery and emergency and critical
care. In 2015 the theme will be “The Neurological Patient”. During three days, six high quality,
international speakers will share their knowledge with you. Our speakers from Denmark, Sweden,
Norway, Holland and USA are all popular, experienced and highly skilled educators. We want you to be
one of 250 veterinarians and veterinary technicians, from Scandinavia and even countries like Holland
and Germany attending the congress. You can participate in one of two parallel lecture streams and
choose dry-labs to learn hands-on practical skills.
For the first time this year we cooperate with “Vetventilen”, the Swedish association for anesthesia interested veterinarians and veterinary technicians. Their yearly meeting and symposium
(language Swedish) will be held Friday 23nd January at our congress hotel. Vetventilens
attendees who choose to stay at the BSA congress will be given a substantial reduction
in price. For more information and registration visit www.vetventilen.se. It is also good to
know that Purina in cooperation with Jamaren and Ceva will launch ISFM´s Wellcat
program and organize an interesting symposium on creating a cat friendly clinic at the
congress hotel Thursday 22nd January. For more information about the program visit
www.wellcat.org.
We are also very happy and grateful for the participation and cooperation with our
sponsors. During this congress Swevet is our diamond sponsor and Boehringer
Ingelheim our gold sponsor. Swevet and Blå Stjärnan Akademin will together
grant two awards to congress attendees making it possible for them to visit
veterinary clinics or universities abroad. Please visit and meet our sponsors at
the congress exhibition.
Last but not least the congress will offer all delegates a fantastic social program
with a welcome reception and a great congress gala dinner and party during the
Saturday night. With dance, music, and singing we will be howling at the moon till
very early Sunday morning.
I am looking forward to meet you all soon in Gothenburg. Don´t miss this great
opportunity for excellent continuing veterinary education in a friendly atmosphere!
