Grey Parrot Anatomy Project Veterinary Webinar

Introduction

When Dr. Michelle Hawkins of the Companion Exotic Animal Medicine & Surgery Service of the UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine expressed interest in an encore presentation of the Grey Parrot Anatomy Project for veterinary medical students, Dr. M. Scott Echols and LafeberVet were happy to oblige.

Veterinary medical educators (in appropriate time zones) and their students were invited to attend this free, interactive, web-based seminar featuring incredible avian anatomy images, video clips that enhance our understanding of anatomy, and an exciting research update.

Thoroughly depressing webinar – I used to think I knew something about avian anatomy, and now I realise just how much I don’t know and how much more I have to learn! ☺
…Brilliant images, brilliant work. I can’t wait to see the avalanche of papers that come out of this project…Thanks to everyone for a well-presented webinar.
