Advances in Animal Biosciences is an associated publication to the journal animal. It aims to publish high quality conference, symposium and workshop proceedings on animal-related aspects of the life sciences with emphasis on farmed and other managed animals. These can be in the form of a book of abstracts, summaries or complete papers. The format will highlight the title of the meeting and organisations involved but the publications will have the added advantage of forming a series under ‘Advances in Animal Biosciences’.
Subject areas can include aspects of Breeding and Genetics, Nutrition, Physiology and Functional Biology of Systems, Behaviour, Health and Welfare, Livestock Farming Systems, Human Health and Product Quality. However, due to the integrative nature of biological systems, monographs and conference proceedings dealing with the translation of basic and strategic science into the whole animal and farming system and the impact on Productivity, Product Quality, Food Security, the Environment, Climate Change and Humans will be particularly welcome.
This information can be found on the homepage of Advances in Animal Biosciences here.
The conference proceedings from the BSAS (from 2011) and EAAP Annual Conferences can be found in this publication.

British Young Breeders is open to anyone aged 15-25 who is involved with the breeding of sport horses and ponies, including riders, students and stud employees. Supported by British Breeding and The British Horse Foundation, BYB provides training in the theory and practice of sport horse breeding as well as developing a lively social network. Working with British stud books Warmblood Breeders UK (WBB-UK), Anglo European Studbook (AES), Sport Horse Breeding GB (SHBGB) and The British Hanoverian Horse Society (BHHS), who are all members of the World Breeding Federation, recruits receive training in horse management, conformation, presentation of horses in a grading context and judging.
Those who have taken part in the programme are universal in their praise. “BYB has given me access to teaching from some of the most successful warmblood breeders in the world and taught me to see horses how they see them, understand what they are looking for, and present them in the best way possible”, explained Lisa Yates, Assistant Publicity Officer for BYB and member of the British Young Breeders Team at the 2011 World Young Breeders Championships. “Being involved in the young breeders has allowed me to form some great friendships and given me contacts that will hopefully be the future of British breeding. As a rider, breeder and future vet this has been an invaluable experience”.

Why is the EEHNC organised?
The impact of nutrition on the equine athlete is often underestimated, although condition of the horse and its performance are often related to feed. Many efforts have been made to understand equine nutritional physiology. Interactions with human research and findings in the bio-industry have contributed to the understanding within the horse community.
Still many questions remain unanswered. The discussion about the potential health effects of feed should be continued, especially in relation to sport performance, training and well-being of the horse. The relations between breed, prevention, cure, metabolism, feeding habits and nutrition still have many areas of discussion. Practical experience and scientific research should combine their efforts in finding solutions to pending problems.
A group of individuals, institutions and companies has set up a multidisciplinary approach to understand the influence of feed on equine health. The organizing committee invites all researchers, veterinarians, universities, feed industry, nutritionists, pharmaceutical and nutraceutical industry, breeders, professional horse men/women and their co-workers, sport federations and educative institutions to participate in this learning process.

National Equine Forum
The late Mr. Arthur George MBE, former Secretary of the Welsh Agriculture Society and a member of the Welsh Agricultural Equine Association, was very concerned that those in the Horse World did not appear to act in concert. He, therefore, invited the late Professor Colin Spedding and Graham Suggett to meet with him on the Welsh Stand at the 1991 Royal Show to discuss what might be done.
As a result, during 1992, representatives of a number of organisations (especially the Welsh Agricultural Equine Association, the Association of British Riding Schools and the National Farmers' Union) met to discuss ways in which the horse and pony industry could "speak with one voice" when that was needed and appropriate. The outcome was a proposal to establish a National Equine Coordinating Council (NECC) and as a first step a Seminar was organised at the NFU headquarters to discuss issues of immediate importance and to float the idea of a NECC. The concept was well received and development work commenced, only to founder over the issue of funding. Whilst being disappointed those who had been members of the small organising committee believed that the concept of a Forum should be maintained as it had had such a good reception. Thus was born the National Equine Forum with an organising committee, formed from a nucleus of those who had pioneered the original concept, with Professor Colin Spedding at the helm as Chairman, and the secretaryship funded by the Association of British Riding Schools through the generosity of the then Chairman, Mrs Pauline Harris.
The organising committee of the National Equine Forum is a freestanding body with no other remit than to run this national event. Members of the Committee are unpaid volunteers, with only essential and exceptional travelling expenses paid. The Convener is paid a small honorarium, the Hon. Sec. and the PR Officer are paid a small fee. The format of the Forum evolved as a low cost operation due to the fact that no-one wanted yet another competing body, or the cost of running it.
The first Forum, held in 1993, could not, of course, assume that it would be annual, but it was so well received that a decision was made to run it annually, if possible. The possibility became fact due to generous sponsorship and speakers giving of their time without payment which has made it possible to operate
The importance of the National Equine Forum is illustrated by the appropriate Minister in DEFRA, previously MAFF, opening the Forum (Nicholas Soames in 1993 and 1994; Angela Browning in 1995 and 1996; Lord Donoughue in 1998, Baroness Hayman in 1999 and 2000 [with only the FMD outbreak preventing her from taking part in 2001], Elliot Morley [standing in for Alun Michael] in 2002; Alun Michael in 2003, 2004 and 2005, Jim Knight in 2006, Barry Gardiner in 2007, Jonathan Shaw in 2008, Jane Kennedy, represented by Arik Dondi, in 2009 and James Paice 2011). The Forum has also been greatly honoured by the presence of HRH The Princess Royal, who has contributed her ideas as part of the programme since 1996. The Princess Royal is now the President of the Forum. The Forum was held at the Royal Veterinary College, then the Royal Society and in 2012 it moved to the Institution of Mechanical Engineers.
Each year the programme is determined by topical issues with ample opportunity being afforded for questions, contributions and discussion from the floor. The main purpose, however, remains as being an opportunity for the equine industry to share its thoughts and to serve as a sounding board for others to float ideas and proposals.
The Committee only exists to organise each Forum, not to follow up whatever may emerge at the meeting. Where such follow-up action is needed, the Committee try to identify an existing body as the appropriate channel. Examples of successful initiatives which had their first public airing at the NEF include: - The British Grooms Association (BGA), the British Equestrian Federation Researching Equines Database (BEFRED) and the National Equine Database (NED). The observations that the 2012 Olympic Games would "leave no legacy" contributed to the BEF establishing the Hoof initiative. The Forum is not a threat to any other body and does not seek to usurp their functions. It provides opportunities that can be taken up when participants want or need them.
The Forum Administrator is Miles Williamson-Noble and the Forum Hon. Sec is Tracy Allen.
Topics and speakers from the 1990 fore runner meeting and the meetings from 1993 onwards can be found by clicking here.

The English version of Sport Science Review is published by the National Institute for Sport Research from Bucharest (Romania). It is only natural that an Institute of academic research such as the NISR fosters and encourages comprehensive academic research involving experts from different countries.
The need for an English version of our journal has derived from the attempt to raise the quality and visibility of Romanian academic research in sport science and to join hands with the efforts of our colleagues from abroad.
In an increasing globalization process, the aim of Sport Science Review is to create an opportunity for both Romanian and foreign researchers to exchange knowledge from their professional background and disseminate their contributions in the research field. Also, we intend to create a forum for academic debate, where the main trends in sport science are to be discussed and analyzed.
Looking forward to achieving all its goals, the Sport Science Review editorial board would like to thank all its contributors and partners – present and future alike – for their invaluable support and would like to express full hope that its readers will find the journal a pleasant, informed and instructive academic tool.
