The AVTRW has an extremely long and distinguished history, with the association running since 1946. We aim to further the interests of our members through:
The organisation of an annual conference
Providing a friendly and supportive atmosphere for students, interns and residents working with veterinary and allied research to present their work
Providing networking opportunities for early career researchers
Committee members
Meet the team
AVTRW is managed by a national committee consisting of a President, Junior Vice President and Senior Vice President, a Secretary and a Treasurer. These positions are annually elected at the organisation's AGM which is held during the conference.
The committee is supported by a council which consists of co-opted members representing major veterinary research, teaching and governmental organisations.
