====WikiVet and Vetstream Link Up to Provide Clinical Content to Vet Students Free of Charge====
There has been a great response to the Global Dentistry Challenge in November with over 350 respondents from over 60 vet schools.

The latest peer-reviewed clinical content is to be offered to veterinary students online free of charge following an agreement with [http://www.vetstream.co.uk Vetstream], a leading supplier of digital clinical information to the veterinary profession. Vetstream offers four peer-reviewed online point-of-care, clinical reference resources: [https://www.vetstream.com/canis Canis] (dogs), [https://www.vetstream.com/felis Felis] (cats), [https://www.vetstream.com/equis Equis] (horses) and [https://www.vetstream.com/lapis Lapis] (rabbits), which can be accessed on any internet-enable device. Updated weekly, its resources feature content from more than 900 leading veterinary clinicians from around the world with content focused on the differences from normal in animals experiencing clinical conditions.
