This DISCOVER Conference will explore issues associated with current levels of antibiotic usage in animal production, opportunities for reducing these levels, and the alternatives to antibiotic usage.
The American Dairy Science Association launched the ADSA DISCOVER
Conference series based on action of the ADSA Board at the Annual Meeting in
June 1997. DISCOVER Conferences offer an environment and format that encourage
exciting interactions among attendees focusing on topics of importance to the
science of food animal agriculture. Sessions will be primarily mornings and
evenings, with afternoons available for discussion or recreation.
All participants are
encouraged to participate in conference discussions and the various forums
provided. This conference is designed to provide a format and venue to
encourage in-depth discussion of cutting-edge science. There will be no
proceedings, and citations from the conference will not be allowed.
This is a program announcement. Specific program topics, registration and housing information are in the process of being developed. For the latest conference information, visit the DISCOVER Web site at:
