Call for Submissions - Industrial Partners

The American Association of Swine Veterinarians invites submissions for the Industrial Partners portion of the 49^th AASV Annual Meeting, to be held March 3-6, 2018 in San Diego, California. This is an opportunity for commercial companies to make brief presentations of a technical, educational nature to members of the AASV.

As in the past, the oral sessions will consist of a series of 15-minute presentations scheduled from 1:00 to 5:00 pm on Sunday afternoon, March 4. A poster session will take place on the same day. Poster authors will be required to be stationed with their poster from 12:00 noon until 1:00 pm on Sunday, and the posters will remain on display throughout the afternoon and also on Monday for viewing by meeting attendees.

Restricted program space necessitates a limit on the number of presentations per company. Companies that are members of the Journal of Swine Health and Production Industry Support Council (listed here, and on the back cover of each issue of the journal) may submit two topics for oral presentation. All other companies may submit one topic for oral presentation. AASV e-Letter sponsors may submit an additional topic for oral presentation. In addition, every company may submit one topic for poster presentation (poster topics must not duplicate oral presentations). All topics must represent information not previously presented at the AASV annual meeting or published in the meeting proceedings.

To participate, send 1) company name, 2) presentation title, 3) a brief description of the presentation content, and 4) contact information for the presenter (name, mailing address, telephone number, and e-mail address) to AASV by September 29, 2017. Please identify whether the submission is intended for oral or poster presentation. Send submissions to: aasv@aasv.org.

Presenters will be notified of their acceptance by October 13, 2017, and must submit a paper for publication in the meeting proceedings by November 15, 2017. Companies failing to submit papers in a timely manner may not be eligible for future participation in these sessions.

There is no charge for participation in the Industrial Partners sessions, but all presenters are required to register for the meeting (nonmember participants may register at the AASV regular member rate). AASV does not provide a speaking stipend or travel reimbursement to Industrial Partners presenters.
