Ben begin dit jaar op een congres geweest voor dierenartsen in Brussel.
Een van de topics hier ging over het headshaking syndrome.
Werd gegeven door een specialist op dat gebied.
omdat ik me opgegeven had voor de videoconference kan ik de link doorgeven zodat jullie
het college zelf kunnen zien.
het is wel in het engels, maar goed te volgen doordat de sheets ook zichtbaar zijn!
Zal wel niet mogen om de link door te geven, maar hij is maar beperkt geldig in tijd.
Hoop dat ik jullie hiermee kan helpen!
De link geeft toegang tot alle lezingen, enkele andere zijn ook heel goed, andere ( bijvoorbeeld wondzorg, mijn specialiteit, viel zwaar tegen!)
Hoop dat het lukt zo
