Elephant Endotheliotropic Herpesvirus (EEHV) continues to impact Asian and African elephants in human care and in the wild.  Now more than ever, it is important to continue sharing critical medical, husbandry, training, and scientific information with colleagues across the globe.

The North American EEHV Advisory Group is hosting a three-day virtual Global EEHV Symposium on March 5-7, 2024 from 7 am – 10 am CST (1 pm – 4pm GMT).  Information about the EEHV Advisory Group may be found at
eehvinfo.org

We look forward to including researchers, veterinarians, veterinary technicians, conservationists, elephant husbandry professionals, and colleagues from across the world in this symposium.

We are seeking abstracts to be presented for the meeting and aim to include case reports, research findings, vaccine progress reports, treatment plans, and advisory/working group updates.  Panel discussions involving EEHV experts will also be part of the symposium.

A call for abstracts is available now with final abstracts submissions due by December 15, 2023.  A sample abstract is available to follow for formatting.  Submissions and questions may be directed to naeehvag@azvt.org.

Please distribute this information to all members of the elephant community.  Further information regarding the online platform will be available soon.

Thank you and hope to see you all at the symposium,

North American EEHV Advisory Group
