IPVS – Swine in Minnesota

UMN graduate student awarded at the 26th IPVS congress in Rio

The 26th IPVS congress was in the beautiful city of Rio de Janeiro this past month. A number of presentations were given by UMN speakers, sharing the latest news in swine research. Dr. Cipriano de Abreu from the MycoLab received two best presentation awards for his talks: “Mycoplasma hyorhinis detection in dams and piglets during lactation” and “An experimental aerossol infection model for Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae in pigs”.

IPVS 2022 Minneapolis Bid Update

Thank you for supporting our bid to host the 2022 IPVS in Minneapolis. Unfortunately, Minneapolis was not selected and the 2022 IPVS meeting will take place in Leipzig, Germany.

We are grateful about the experience this has represented for us, the words of encouragement we have received from many of you and we remain excited about bringing forward a bid for IPVS 2024 in a couple of years at the 2020 IPVS in Brazil. We hope we can count on your support.

In the meantime, we welcome you to the Allen D. Leman swine conference in St. Paul, from September 15th to 18th, 2018.
