For this purpose, we invite you to attend our conference as a presenter or a participant. The scientific program of the main conference includes plenary session with key-note lectures, oral communications (Young scientist competition) and workshops held in parallel sessions and posters. Attending the conference will provide a perfect forum for networking and vivid scientific discussions with the global veterinary community.

Thessaloniki

Significant scientific knowledge-sharing and the special atmosphere of the ESDAR Conference will make your trip to Thessaloniki, worth it. Being at a crossroad joining Europe and Asia, the city of Thessaloniki is a multi-cultural metropolis, that within a few minutes’ walk one can reach monuments representing 2,300 years of history, fifteen of which are listed at the UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Thessaloniki is one of the oldest European cities that combines its thousand years old heritage and the architectural marvels with the Greek, Roman, Byzantine, Ottoman and Jew history, all of which contribute to its uniqueness. Named after Great Alexanders’ sister, Thessaloniki provides a waterfront along Thermaikos Gulf of about 5 Km that residents and visitors can enjoy a walk on, while experiencing different flavors combined on the same table in the capital of gastronomy. The city offers excellent conference facilities and outstanding hospitality, restaurants and bars that will ensure that the social aspects of the conference will not disappoint you.
