Whirling Disease Symposium

The 13th Annual Whirling Disease Symposium was held in Denver, Colorado on February 12 and 13, 2007. View the 2007 Proceedings [6MB pdf].

Each year, the Whirling Disease Foundation, Whirling Disease Initiative, and other sponsors hold the national Whirling Disease Symposium. This event provides an excellent forum to discuss the latest research advancements and has been a central component of the collaborative approach to whirling disease research and management on a national level.
