Veterinary Research Services Open at Aberystwyth

Aug 10 2015

Rebecca Evans, Welsh Government Deputy Minister for Farming and Food, officially opened the new Wales Veterinary Science Centre at Aberystwyth at the end of June.

Located on the site of the former Animal and Plant Health Agency’s (APHA) Veterinary Investigation Unit, the new centre was established by Iechyd Da, a consortium of independent veterinary practices based in Wales together with Welsh Lamb and Beef Producers Ltd and Aberystwyth University.

Iechyd Da was recently appointed by APHA as a third party provider to deliver expert post-mortem examinations of new and re-emerging diseases of farm animals. The service has been operational since April 2015.

Building on the post-mortem examinations for farm animals, Iechyd Da intend to broaden the range of services offered to include companion animals and wildlife species, as well as to develop a range of laboratory diagnostic services to support disease eradication programmes and to support field practitioners in disease diagnosis.
