Call for scientific presentations

For the 2014 TriNation meeting, we invite scientists to submit presentations on current research updates on PD, CMS or HSMI. If you are interested in giving a presentation, please forward a title, name of presenter and a short description of the topic (3-4 lines). The presentation should be applicable and focused towards solutions for the industry. Please keep in mind that this is not a scientific conference only for researchers! Proposals should be sent to britt-bang.jensen @ vetinst.no (remove all spaces before mailing). Deadline for submission is  December 15th

The Steering committee will keep the right to reject those presentations that do not fit for the purpose, and you may be offered to give a poster instead.
