VICAS Conference 2018 - eyes, ears and skin, oh my!

摘要

Recently appointed VICAS chairperson, Lydia Langley DVM, gives a concise overview of this year's VICAS Conference.It's that time of year, when the companion animal vets and nurses come out of hibernation and flock in their droves to the Veterinary Ireland Companion Animal Society (VICAS) Conference. However, the conference didn't get off to the best start this year.Just as we were all looking forward to heading down to the beautiful surroundings of the historic Killashee Hotel near Naas, the 'Beast from the East' and Storm Emma converged to steal the spotlight and proceeded to ravage Ireland with the worst snow storms in living memory. So, we all scuttled home to shelter from the wrath of two battling weather fronts. Needless to say, for the safety of one and all involved, sadly the VICAS conference had to be postponed.
