CLATR will sponsor several activities at the virtual 2020 National AALAS Meeting

CLATR Virtual Trainee Luncheon 2020

Although we can’t provide a real luncheon, CLATR is excited to continue the proud tradition of bringing trainees and experienced laboratory animal professionals together for a mentoring session. The "speed networking" format ensures maximization of contacts with current and future colleagues. Come meet new people and share your experiences!

Tuesday, October 27th from 3:00-4:30pm (EST).

Mentors and trainees should contact Kate Storves to register. Email: vetkate@gmail.com.


Pathology Quiz Bowl
Co-sponsored with IDEXX BioResearch

Test your pathology skills in and fun an interactive virtual session that has become an AALAS mainstay.

Wallace P. Rowe Lecture & Bhatt Award Winner

Wallace P. Rowe was the first scientist to undertake systemic studies of many viral infections of laboratory animal mice. This lecture focuses on a current, innovative concept with implications for laboratory animal diseases, and has been pre-recorded for on-demand viewing.

Speaker and Title to Be Announced in the AALAS Meeting Program.


History of the Wallace P. Rowe Lecture

The Wallace P. Rowe Lecture is an invited talk featured at the National Meeting of the American Association of Laboratory Animal Science (AALAS), the premier forum for the exchange of information and expertise in the care and use of laboratory animals.   The Rowe lecture features a speaker who has made significant scientific contributions using animal models and is a strong role model for scientists in the field of Comparative Medicine.  Dr. Rowe was the first scientist to undertake systemic studies of many of the viral infections of laboratory mice; he published over 225 scientific papers between 1950 and 1985 on diseases including Murine Leukemia Virus, SV40, human adenoviruses, and nearly all known viruses of rodents--polyoma virus, thymic virus, reovirus, MHV, LDHV, Theiler’s virus, LCMV , MAV,  RCV and MVM.  The Wallace P. Rowe Memorial Lectureship was established in 1985 to provide an enduring legacy to commemorate Dr. Rowe’s many contributions to laboratory animal science.
