I am very pleased to share information about an exciting new animal welfare-related project!  The AVMA  (specifically its Animal Welfare Committee and Animal Welfare Division) is collaborating with the Federation of Animal Science Societies’ (FASS)  Scientific Advisory Committee on Animal Care on a dynamic webinar series where participants can learn about the science behind current and emerging issues in farmed animal welfare.

The first webinar will be hosted next Friday, May 11 from 1:00 until 2:30 pm (CDT), and the topic is sow housing.  The event is open to all audiences, but you do have to register. For more information and to register visit: http://www.fass.org/2012animalcareseries/gestation/

We hope you find this new program to be informational and useful!
