Have You Herd? AABP PodCasts

AABP Executive Director Dr. Fred Gingrich provides a wrap-up of the 57th AABP Annual Conference. Gingrich walks through registration numbers and answers some of the questions and comments submitted in the post-conference feedback survey. Eight-six percent of respondents to the survey rated the conference four or five stars. He also discusses how AABP books conference locations and some of the requirements placed on the organization for food and beverage costs as well as hotel room block requirements.

AABP is changing preconference seminar offerings to reflect the changing needs of members. AABP Vice President Dr. Mark Hilton will work with the program committee and existing AABP committees to develop the seminars that will be offered in Omaha at the 2025 AABP 58th Annual Conference. Members who have suggestions for seminar or program content should email [e-mail] prior to October 5th. AABP will expand the number of seminars offered outside of the annual conference to offer more CE for our members. This will include one beef and one dairy seminar at the AABP office in Ashland, Ohio, as well as one beef and one dairy seminar in a regional location within AABP districts.

Gingrich also reminds our members that all conference sessions and webinar recordings are available as a free member benefit. Members can download the free “BCI Mobile Conference” app from their device’s store or view online at this link. Draft proceedings from the conference will be published after copyediting.
