Introduction
The International Society for Veterinary Epidemiology and Economics (ISVEE) is a nonprofit organization that was created to promote the study of veterinary epidemiology and veterinary economics throughout the world.
The major objective of ISVEE is to organize scientific meetings in order to exchange information on developments in the fields of veterinary epidemiology and economics. The first meeting was held in 1976; additional symposia were held every three years thereafter in different regions of the world.
The symposia are organized around several scientific themes. Topics such as risk analysis & management, animal agriculture, food safety, public health, economics & livestock production, epidemiologic methods, and education are addressed. ISVEE symposia are open to anyone interested in these issues, particularly those involved in veterinary epidemiology, economics, or education. Membership in the Society is awarded to all symposium participants.
2012 Scientific Meeting
Planning for the next scientific meeting, ISVEE 13, is underway. For all information concerning registration, abstract submission, workshops, and lodging, please see: http://www.isvee13.org/.
