Being an audacious and courageous people, Portuguese never give up, and so, we are delighted to inform you we will have the 73rd Annual Meeting of EAAP in Porto. On September 5th to 9th, 2022!
This pandemic showed us that our sector never stops, that animal production continues to put food in people’s houses, and that we are an essential part of society. In 2022 we will surely be under the economic and societal consequences of this pandemic, and the climate urgency makes challenges in Animal Science more urgent than ever, and we, as its scientific community will be on top and ahead of them.
In this way, the program will cover various areas of knowledge, such as nutrition, genetics, physiology, animal health and welfare, livestock farming systems, precision livestock farming, insect production and use, cattle, horse, pig, sheep and goat production. These topics will be filled with innovation and recent scientific results leading animal production in the right path.
The European Federation of Animal Science (EAAP) Annual Meeting gives an opportunity for the application of new ideas in practice through many parallel sessions, a plenary meeting, poster presentations, and discussions about scientific achievements in livestock production all around the world.
This is, as you know, a privileged discussion forum where the research community meets with the industry, to discuss and plan for how to address the multiple challenges that animal science sector has to cope with in the upcoming years.
All these activities make the EAAP one of the largest animal science congresses in the world.
As a community, we will have to make up for the lost opportunity to be face to face networking this year. We hope to welcome a new record braking number of participants worldwide.
To make up for it, we will organize a vast excellent, and of course unforgettable, social program throughout the week, starting with the welcome ceremony, a typical Portuguese night, a gala dinner, as well as great technical tours and an exquisite accompanying persons program.
The 73rd annual meeting of EAAP: EAAP2022, will be a unique opportunity to add work with pleasure and restart travelling. Porto is the place to be in 2022!
The last EAAP meeting held in Portugal was in 1987. 35 years, and the year 2020 in the middle, Portugal will have the privilege to finally host the annual meeting of EAAP, in the fabulous city of Porto.
We welcome you and wish you an unforgettable stay in our country!
