VCRS Symposium
The Veterinary Comparative Respiratory Society organizes our Annual Scientific Symposium (VCRS Symposium) which promotes scientific discussion and collaboration and provides a platform for presentation of new scientific knowledge by both established researchers and trainees. This event is hosted by the current president of the VCRS. The VCRS also sponsors lectures at major veterinary meetings throughout the year including VMX (formerly known as the NAVC conference) and ACVIM Forum.
