This would be a joint talk with Dr David Church from the Royal Veterinary College. David would be introducing the concept of VetCompass in the UK, how it has expanded the research scene in the veterinary world, and the benefits that the programme has brought to improve animal welfare. Yan Hui would then share more about her research paper and update on the progress of VetCompass Singapore, plans for the future and how the wider veterinary community can join the VetCompass Singapore initiative.
