The Avian Pathology Lectures
sponsored by the Houghton Trust

On the occasion of each Global World Veterinary Poultry Association (WVPA) Congress, the Houghton Trust sponsors a Keynote Lecture, the Avian Pathology Lecture. This has been the tradition since 1993 with the international congresses but has now been extended to the two regional meetings, the Asian since 2012 and the African, starting this year, 2022. Each lecture is given by an early to mid-career researcher who has made a major contribution to the field of poultry disease research. The lecturer will have been selected by the Houghton Trust and members of the international or regional branch of the WVPA.

To mark the occasion, each lecturer is presented with a certificate and an engraved commemorative award. All costs of attending the Congress at which the lecture is given are met by the Houghton Trust.

Nominations for future presenters can be made in two ways:

• By the Corresponding Secretary of a National Branch of the WVPA, or
• By an individual member of the WVPA.

Nominations must be made using the form available HERE, following instructions included in the form.
