DPP (Digestive Physiology of Pigs) 2018, Brisbane, Australia

 The 14th International Symposium on Digestive Physiology of Pigs (DPP) will be held in Brisbane (Australia) between the 21st and the 24th of August 2018 (DPP2018).

Launched in 1979 the DPP is a definitive international scientific forum on digestive physiology of pigs. The Australasian pig science and industry community are particularly proud to introduce a student program to assist MPhil/PhD candidates to attend the conference. All in all, around 400 attendees from Asia, Europe, and North and South America are expected to joint the event.

The scientific framework of the program is centered around the digestive system, focusing on specific aspects such as the emerging areas of the Microbiota and the nutrient chemosensory mechanisms in the pig gastrointestinal tract.
