==== New Content on WikiVet ====

==== WikiVet Global Challenge ====

WikiVet has collaborated 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.

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.

==== WikiVet and Mars Petcare Collaborate to Provide High-Quality Online Veterinary Resources ====

==== Animal Handling Videos ====

WikiVet and Mars Petcare have '''[[Mars_Petcare|announced a collaboration]]''' that aims to improve the quality and reach of dentistry teaching materials freely available online to veterinary students, practising veterinarians and vet nurses through WikiVet’s innovative and expanding veterinary encyclopaedia. The collaboration will 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.

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].  

View '''[http://www.slideshare.net/nshort1/wiki-vet-slideshare-10-29-2014-final-41048978 Slideshare presentation]''' about the collaboration.
