Editor’s note

Dear theriogenology friends,

We thank the Scientific and Abstract Committee of the American 
College of Theriogenologists for their hard work. Abstracts truly 
represent an enormous amount of time, effort and resources 
invested by the investigators and their institutions. We are 
impressed with the broad range of topics, techniques, and 
abstract quality! 

There is always a possibility of creating manuscripts from 
abstracts. Although some abstracts will need further work before 
a manuscript can be created, many have sufficient information 
to become either a case report or original paper. Please consider 
expanding your abstract into a manuscript and when doing so, 
keep Clinical Theriogenology in mind as a potential target journal.

We really appreciate the willingness of speakers to create very 
thoughtful and complete reviews for our journal that enrich 
these pages. For me, it was a privilege and pleasure to work 
with these scholars. We thank you all for your contributions 
to theriogenology. In addition, editorial members deserve our 
appreciation for reviewing and refining the reviews. 

Our time spent in editing, copyediting, and formatting are 
well worth the effort. We are fortunate to have colleagues to 

help me in these aspects. They are supporting me in my goal 
to improve the quality of our journal. Please join with me 
in thanking Drs. John Kastelic and Ahmed Tibary. 

Ms. Tara Beasley’s help in organizing and managing the timely 
arrival of abstracts and manuscripts, and working with the 
committee, authors and me is greatly appreciated. 

On another related topic, we are thankful to Dr. Riley Thompson 
for creating a survey regarding our journal and for our Franz 
management to complete and compile the results. Thank you 
for your encouraging comments and by the way, I look forward 
to receiving reviews (10 of you have agreed to create reviews 
for the journal).

Finally, I express my deep appreciation to the leadership of 
our 3 organizations and Dr. Charles Franz for their support 
and assistance. 

Regards,

Augustine
