on the day of the talk). Any computer or informatics related topic

relevant to the target topics.



-- IMPORTANT --



The official AVMA Call for Speakers is already closed. We MUST have
our titles submitted soon or we may not have space allocated in what
is a very small convention center. Therefore, the deadline for
submission is

We know this is really short, but we appreciate your efforts to
accommodate our timeline.



-- OTHER INFORMATION --

Submissions are invited from both inside and outside the veterinary
profession, wherever information technologies have been shown
effective in solving real problems for veterinary practitioners.
Presentations will be chosen competitively with preferences to those
aligned with the symposium's theme and/or with information the
practitioner can take back immediately to practice.



The Education Committee of AVI will review all proposals. Selected
speakers will be notified by July 15, 2010. Speakers who speak a
minimum of four Speaking Hours qualify for travel, housing, and per
