A panel discussion on medication use and regulations in the pari-mutuel industry will be part of an equine medical symposium hosted by the University of Florida College of Veterinary Medicine March 14-15 in Hollywood Beach, Fla.


The symposium will focus on equine health. Topics include respiratory diseases, gastric ulceration, neurological diseases, performance evaluation, upper airway surgery, equine disease outbreaks, and catastrophic injuries. There also will be an update on West Nile virus, which hit areas of Florida hard last year.


The symposium will be held at the Ambassador Resort and Corporate Center, located not far from Gulfstream Park. For more information, contact Kate Ziemak, the event’s coordinator, at 352-392-1701, extension 246
