VCS was formed in 1976 by a small group of veterinarians
who wanted to establish a professional organization dedicated to veterinary oncology. VCS is a non-profit educational organization incorporated in the State of Illinois. Our over 800 members include specialists in medical, surgical, and radiation oncology, internists, pathologists, pharmacologists and general practitioners worldwide.

JOINT MEETING WITH ACVR IN 2012! The 2012 Annual Conference will be quite a conference for both VCS and ACVR. We’re expecting nearly 900 participants to join us for this four day conference. Both VCS and ACVR will have two joint keynote speaker sessions but each group will also have their own special workshops and events as we typically do. Chaired by Andrew Vaughan and co-chair Pam Jones, plans are well underway for excellent keynote speakers, a Resident Review Workshop, outstanding oral and poster presentations and so much more. The Gala Dinner will be like none other and we hope that you will mark your calendar’s and plan to join us in Vegas next October. Abstract submission opens in early May and registration for both the conference and the hotel opens on June 18th.
