The Tenth International Conference of the Veterinary Research Institute, ICOVRI 2025, commenced on Sunday, September 27, 2026, under the patronage of Dr. Abdel Aziz Kanswa, Minister of Higher Education and Scientific Research, and Dr. Mamdouh Maawad, President of the National Center for Research and Acting President of the Academy of Scientific Research and Technology. The conference is being held under the slogan "The Light That Guides Science to Lead."
The conference is being organized by the Veterinary Research Institute, led by Dr. Khaled Abdel Hamid, Dean of the institute and Chairman of the conference. It will run for four consecutive days from September 27 to 30, 2026. The event started with an official opening ceremony at the Hilton Heliopolis Hotel in Cairo, followed by scientific sessions and working papers that will continue in Alexandria at the Tulip Hotel from September 28 to 30.
The conference features a distinguished group of scientists, researchers, academics, and experts from various research institutions and universities at the local and international levels. The tenth edition of the conference is based on an integrated scientific vision that takes the "immune basis" and the approach of "One Health" as its main axis. This approach emphasizes that human, animal, and environmental health represent a comprehensive and interconnected system.
The conference aims to shed light on new paths in the development of veterinary vaccines and modern diagnostic techniques to reduce health risks and improve livestock, poultry, and fish production. It will discuss several important scientific themes, including the latest technologies in tracking and diagnosing animal diseases and combating them, applications of artificial intelligence in veterinary medicine, and strategies for addressing microbial resistance to antibiotics.
The conference also covers applications of biotechnology to develop more efficient vaccines, modern trends in reproduction and artificial insemination, fish and marine animal health, and modern nutrition strategies to improve productivity. Additionally, it addresses combating diseases common to humans and animals and ensuring the safety and quality of food of animal origin.
As part of encouraging applied scientific research, the conference presents the "Best Applied Research Award," which includes five prestigious awards given to the best research papers with direct scientific and industrial returns. The conference also allows participating researchers the opportunity to publish their accepted research in specialized and classified scientific journals.
