Reproduction - “an everevolving<br />

discipline”<br />

Jonathan Pycock,<br />

course organiser<br />

for Equine<br />

Reproduction at<br />

the Next Level<br />

tells us about his<br />

new course<br />

Equine<br />

reproduction is<br />

an ever-evolving<br />

discipline. As well<br />

as the basic aspects being important,<br />

there is a need for colleagues already<br />

experienced in the field to develop<br />

and hone their skills. This course<br />

is designed to offer that advanced<br />

learning experience. A few select<br />

topics have been chosen and will<br />

form the basis of interactive lectures<br />

in the morning, followed by “handson”<br />

wet labs in the afternoon.<br />

With the increase in interest<br />

surrounding assisted reproductive<br />

techniques, embryo transfer<br />

including flushing, searching and<br />

preparation for transfer is of interest<br />

to many practitioners. Likewise,<br />

due to new techniques, subfertile<br />

stallions can still be included in AI<br />

programmes. The course provides a<br />

unique opportunity to study these<br />

topics in a “working” environment<br />

as the course is at one of the UK’s<br />

largest embryo transfer and semen<br />

freezing centres.<br />

The course will also discuss the<br />

relatively new techniques of Doppler<br />

ultrasound, the less understood<br />

stallion ultrasonography and<br />

therapeutic approaches to reduce<br />

early pregnancy failure.<br />

Pioneering stem cell treatments for<br />

mares with endometrosis will also be<br />

reviewed and discussed.<br />
