Madrid, the capital of Spain, is a cosmopolitan city that combines the most modern infrastructures and the status as an economic, financial, administrative and service centre, with a large cultural and artistic heritage, a legacy of centuries of exciting history.

Strategically located in the geographic centre of the Iberian Peninsula at an altitude of 646m above sea level, Madrid has one of the most important historic centres of all the great European cities.

Madrid has over 60 museums. Highlights include the Prado Museum, one of the world’s most important art galleries; the Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum, with over 800 paintings ranging from primitive Flemish artists through to the avant-garde movements; and the Reina Sofía National Art Centre, dedicated to contemporary Spanish art and containing works by Picasso, Joan Miró, Salvador Dalí and Juan Gris, among others.

An open city for those willing to discover it, where culture, gastronomy, business, leisure and entertainment are blended.

Concerts, exhibitions, ballet, select theatrical offerings, the latest film releases, the opportunity to enjoy a wide range of the best Spanish and international gastronomy, to savour the charms of its bars and taverns.

SEVC Workshops 2018 Workshops

Each year, the SEVC provides hands-on laboratories with leading international instructors and the latest technology and equipment to help you enhance your practice skills.

The SEVC’s workshops are another unique feature that enable delegates to gain hands-on laboratory experience and learn new techniques by working in small groups with world-class instructors using the latest equipment on the market.

The workshops will be presented in English, but instructors will provide assistance with other languages. Registration for the workshops does not require registration for the SEVC Scientific Programme.

The SEVC workshops and laboratories adhere strictly to the ethical oversight directions and approval under Spanish regulations in their use of live animals. The number of animals used is always minimal. Every effort is made to avoid situations and procedures that would cause anxiety and pain in the animals, and appropriate sedation and analgesia are used whenever necessary. No animal will be euthanised to meet the needs of any SEVC workshop.

Preliminary list of labs for SEVC 2018:

• Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Cytology and Blood Smears, But Were Afraid to Ask

• Canine Abdominal Ultrasonography • Ultrasonographic Identification of Abdominal Pathologies. Clinical Cases • Challenging Cases in Thoracic and Abdominal Radiology • What Should a Practitioner Know When Viewing MRI and CT Images of Clinical Cases?

Other preliminary workshops:

• Small Animal Dentistry • Behaviour • Exotics • Orthopaedics • Emergency • Ophthalmology
