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.

Integrity in Practice: VCS helps its members set and maintain the highest standards of diagnosis, treatment and prevention of cancer in animals. Communication: VCS promotes communication among those engaged and interested in both naturally-occuring and experimental neoplastic diseases.
Education and Training: VCS provides a means to collect, elucidate and disseminate relevant data on neoplastic diseases for vet students and practicioners, scientists and the public. Research Support: VCS helps design, implement and evaluate studies of neoplastic diseases through ongoing education, meetings, and an annual conference.

DON'T MISS IT!

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 at least one, if not 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 three keynote speakers, a Resident Review Workshop, and 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.
