The Recent Grad Program Committee joins us today to talk about the upcoming 4th AABP Recent Veterinary Graduate Conference which will take place February 12-13, 2021 in St. Louis, Missouri. The program committee consists of chair Dr. Aaron Pospisil, dairy coordinator Dr. Blaine Melody, cow-calf coordinator Dr. Lesley Moser, and feedlot coordinator Dr. Julia Herman. The theme of the conference is based on resiliency. Dr. Pospisil discusses that getting together with your peers, especially after the isolation we have all faced over the past year, is important to share stories and support one another. The conference will provide 15.5 hours of CE that is submitted for RACE approval and the CE certificate will be available for both in-person and virtual attendees. In addition, there are three pre-conference seminar offerings that will provide 8 hours of CE for those attending in-person. The registration fee is kept lower than our annual conference and is $300. Hotel rooms at the St. Louis Hyatt at the Arch are contracted at just $99 per night. New this year we will have a trade show at the conference as well as a virtual trade show.
