As you know, I have been awarded The George Alexander Foundation International Fellowship, officiated by the International Specialised Skills Institute (http://www.issinstitute.org.au/). With that, I’ve registered to attend the Seavet course (http://conference.ifas.ufl.edu/ame/seavet/) during June 2013 in Florida, USA. The 2-week course will cover veterinary aspects of marine megafauna such as sharks, stingrays, fish, pinnipeds, cetaceans, manatees, turtles and penguins. I will also be visiting Hawaii Dept Agriculture, the University of Hawaii at Hilo and The University of Florida’s Tropical Aquaculture Laboratory in Ruskin, FL, USA.
It is my intention that I gather a list of relevant contacts so that I can disseminate the information upon my return as part of my Fellowship. I would like to start collating any questions you may have for me to ask the experts, so that the information I’ll be disseminating will be relevant to you. I’ve started a Google Document that you may add your questions to, under the respective headings.
The virtual file will be called “Seavet 2013 Questions from ISSI Distribution List” and here is the link – http://tinyurl.com/couut99
Note that this file will be available to anyone with the link, so be careful not delete anyone else’s questions. Thank you for your interest and support.
Also, you may wish to register with my various social media platforms (see links below) for more informal chatter about aquatic animal health matters.
