AABP Executive Director Dr. Fred Gingrich is joined by AABP President-Elect and program committee chair Dr. Michael Capel to discuss the 56th AABP Annual Conference which will be held September 21-23, 2023 in Milwaukee, Wis. AABP is appreciative of the efforts from the program committee to plan the continuing education sessions for beef, dairy, small ruminants, practice management, students, clinical skills, research summaries and practice tips sessions. The conference will offer 24.25 hours of continuing education with additional CE hours available for the clinical forum breakfasts on Thursday September 21 and preconference seminars that will be held prior to the conference. 

The theme of the conference is “Evolving Expectations” and the keynote address will be delivered by Sara Frasca who will discuss the “Journey of Innovation” and how cattle veterinarians can evolve and grow practices to meet client and consumer demands. Capel and Gingrich review the highlights of each session and encourage listeners to review the full schedule at this link. The conference will also offer plenty of opportunities to network and socialize with new and old friends and colleagues, including a trade show in the exhibit hall where members can network with animal health company representatives. The AABP Stampede 5k will return again this year -- the inaugural run was also in Milwaukee in 2013. It will be in the same location near Lake Michigan in Juneau Park.

Registration is open and we encourage listeners to register before the fees increase on August 10. Registration information can be found on this page. AABP encourages all attendees to book their hotel reservation in the AABP hotel block to decrease the financial risk to the organization. Book your hotel by going to this link. 

 We look forward to welcoming you to Milwaukee in September to “Evolve Expectations”.
