====New Content====
 
+
[[Pet Food Launch|We are releasing fabulous new content]]: '''[[Pet Food|Small Animal Nutrition - Pet Food]]''' in partnership with Mars Petcare. If you have any questions regarding what to feed your pet or what advice to provide, this section will help you to understand the terminology, legal requirements and what is involved in pet food manufacture and labelling, as well as take you back in time with a brief snippet of history.
====WikiVet Global Challenge Winners====
 
There has been a great response to the Global Dentistry Challenge in November with over 350 respondents from over 60 vet schools. We are now analysing all the results to help us identify topics that students have difficulty with. In the meantime, Lisa Milella has created a 30 minute [[Dentistry Launch|guide]] explaining what the correct responses actually were.
 
 
 
We are also delighted to announce the three prize winners for the Challenge:
 
 
#Hannah Moody who is a fourth year student at the [[UK - Royal (Dick) School of Veterinary Studies, Edinburgh|Royal (Dick) Vet School in Edinburgh]]
 
#Paulina Wieczorkowska a veterinary student from Poland who came second
 
#Ssebunya Yvette a fourth year student at the  [[Uganda - Makerere University College of Veterinary Medicine, Animal Resources and Bio-Security, Kampala|College of Veterinary Medicine, Animal Resources and Biosecurity(CoVAB), Makerere University, Uganda]]
 
 
 
More information about our winners and the link to the video are available on the [[Dentistry Launch|dentistry launch]] page.
 
 
 
==== WikiVet Global Challenge ====
 
The Veterinary Dentistry Challenge ended at 12.00 GMT on Monday 1st December 2015. We are really excited to have had over 350 students take part from over 60 different veterinary schools. The results are fascinating and will help us identify areas that we need to provide more content to support teaching in veterinary dentistry. Final results will be announced shortly.
 
 
 
==== Vet Revise ====
 
This brilliant [[Vet_Revise|flash card program]] has been developed by Matthew Dobson, a 4th year veterinary student at the Royal Veterinary College. Vet Revise is a sophisticated flashcard program which uses a system similar to [http://ankisrs.net/ Anki], which is a lot more efficient than traditional study methods. It not only greatly decreases your time spent studying but also increases the amount you learn. Matthew has recently been selected as a leading [http://elevator.jisc.ac.uk/sosi14/ideas/vet-revise-smarter-way-study Student Innovator] in the UK. The program has been developed for vet students and now includes over 80,000 flashcards. It has just been released for student use and we hope you will find it useful and inspire you to build and share your own card sets.
 
 
 
==== Animal Handling Videos ====
 
We are delighted to have received over 70 great videos from [http://sydney.edu.au/vetscience/about/staff/profiles/pietro.celi.php Dr Pietro Celi] who is Senior Lecturer in Ruminant Production and Health at the Faculty of Veterinary Science in the University of Sydney. These have all been published on the WikiVet Video site and [https://wikivet.mediacore.tv/library/australian-videos can be viewed here].  
 
 
 
==== WikiVet and Mars Petcare Collaborate ====
 
WikiVet has worked with '''[[Lisa Milella]]''' BVSc DipEVDC MRCVS and '''[[Mars Petcare]]''' to produce a comprehensive '''[[Small Animal Dentistry]]''' module that will be invaluable for both veterinary students and graduates. The collaboration has develop high quality training and reference materials on certain areas of '''[[Dentistry_Launch|preventative dental healthcare]]''' to increase awareness and complement the growing vet school curriculum in this area.
 
 
 
==== VetPrep Lectures ====
 
'''[[VetPrep]]''' has generously provided free access to a series of e-lectures through WikiVet. These include sessions on Feline Herpes virus, PRSS, Canine Intestinal Obstructions and Equine Streptococcus. These can be accessed through the '''[[Lectures]]''' link on the left side menu.
 
 
 
==== BSAVA Support ====
 
WikiVet is pleased to announce the '''[[BSAVA|generous donation from the British Small Animal Veterinary Association (BSAVA)]]''' who have provided textbooks to support our new Challenge and outreach programs. Copies of the BSAVA Manual of Canine and Feline Dentistry will be offered to students and vetschools in the Global Challenge.
 
 
 
==== AVS and IVSA ====
 
We are also really pleased that the '''[http://www.avsukireland.co.uk/ Association of Veterinary Students]''' and the '''[http://www.ivsa.org/ International Veterinary Students Association]''' have agreed to work with WikiVet in raising awareness of the site with their associated veterinary schools. We look forward to developing this partnership in the future.
