Dear Colleagues,
It is with great enthusiasm that we announce the 3rd International Electronic Conference on Animals (IECA 2025). The conference is organized by the MDPI open access journal Animals (ISSN: 2076-2615; Impact Factor: 2.7) and will be held online from 12 to 14 March 2025.
On behalf of the Conference Chairs of IECA 2025, I invite you to participate in this important meeting. Animals face unprecedented challenges worldwide, including declining genetic diversity, climate change, pollution, and intensive production systems, to name but a few. The main topics and sessions of the conference are as follows:
A. Sustainable animal nutrition;
B. Animal genetics and genomics;
C. Sustainable animal physiology and reproduction;
D. Environmental challenges to animals and precision livestock farming;
E. Sustainable animal welfare, ethics and human–animal interactions;
F. Sustainability of products derived from animals;
G. One health: improve disease manifestation and management in animals, humans, and the environment.
With the free publication of abstracts and proceedings papers, and awards for the best contributions, this conference represents a unique opportunity for animal scientists around the world to share their latest research, communicate with each other, solve problems, and suggest alternative options for a better future. As well as the energetic and dynamic nature of virtual international conferences, another advantage is that you do not need to travel to attend. You can take advantage of this opportunity from wherever you live.
All the accepted abstracts will be available online on Sciforum.net during and after the conference.
Please join in the discussion about how we can care for the planet's animal heritage better. You cannot afford to miss this conference!
Kind regards,
Conference Chairs
