We would like to formally invite you to join us for the 28th European Congress of Veterinary Internal Medicine for Companion Animals, which will be held from the 6th until the 8th of September in Rotterdam, the Netherlands. The Annual Congress of the ECVIM-CA to be held in 2018, is already the 28th edition. Last year the congress had 1.008 participants coming from 41 countries all over the world!

This congress is a very well-known event on the veterinary internal medicine calendar. The program has streams of lectures organized by special interest societies, such as comparative gastroenterology, hepatology, nephrology and urology, oncology, internalmedicine, cardiology and feline medicine. There are also oral abstract sessions, again organized by the specialist societies, and poster exhibits of abstracts. In 2017 there were 131 abstracts accepted as oral presentation and 103 as poster presentation. The congress will also inform specialists how scientific research is evolving and offer insights into future developments. We hope to see you all in Rotterdam!
