This calendar is a listing of webinars, other learning opportunities, online meetings and other upcoming national events related to animal sheltering and related areas of interest.

Only some of these events are produced by the UC Davis Koret Shelter Medicine Program. Most are being created and sponsored by other groups and agencies.  Being listed here does not mean that we have reviewed the material contained.  We are trying to provide a variety of resources to hopefully help make your life a little easier.  For additional information on any of these items before or after the event please contact the organizer directly (listed in the item description).

Know of any event that we are missing that you think should be shown here?

Webinar – 5/19/22 – The Association of Genes and Behavior: Finding Relevance for Today – ACVB (fee applies)

ACVB Presents (fee applies): The presentation will give some background on genetics, including parts of a chromosome, including transcription and translation, inheritance, and silencing (epigenetics). To conclude, I will highlight how this information should be interpreted with caution but may help with setting up appropriate environments and expectations of owners, selection of pet vs working dogs, and preventing/treating anticipated behavior problems.
