WELCOME

It is our pleasure to invite you to Spain to participate at the 9th International Congress of Veterinary Virology, to be held on the Faculty of Veterinary Science of the Complutense University in Madrid between 4^th and 7^th September 2012.

The novelty during this edition will be that the last day of the conference will be jointly hosted by European Society for Clinical Virology (ESCV) and the European Society for Veterinary Virology (ESVV).

We hope that you will enjoy the Congress and that your interaction with your colleagues from many different countries will stimulate a creative exchange of ideas and will be personally rewarding.

We would also like to invite you to experience the cosmopolitan city of Madrid which will offer us its attractiveness and its quality services.

We look forward to a very successful ESVV 2012 Congress and to meeting you in Madrid.
