WELCOME LETTER
Dear colleagues,
The Organizing Committee invites you to take part in the 31st Ljudevit Jurak International Symposium on Comparative Pathology. This symposium encourages international collaboration and involves a wide array of professionals within the field of pathology. Traditionally, what separates and defines this symposium is collaboration with veterinary pathologists and the comparison of pathologic changes in human and veterinary medicine. With this symposium, we honour Professor Ljudevit Jurak, who founded the first pathology department in Croatia, in Sestre milosrdnice University Hospital Center. Professor Ljudevit Jurak contributed greatly to veterinary and human pathology as well as forensic medicine, and represents a historical and eminent figure in the field of pathology both in Croatia and worldwide.
All pathologists dealing with human and veterinary pathology as well as forensic pathologists are invited to participate in this multidisciplinary meeting and engage in a variety of discussions, social gathering and enjoyment. We also invite all interested colleagues to send their abstracts about the main topics, as well as other surgical pathology and forensic topics, for the poster presentation.
