AVDC-China, the Annual Veterinary Diagnostic Conference and Asia Expo for Veterinary Medicines and Equipment, was initiated by veterinary specialists from international animal-health organisations and from universities in the United States and China. It works to strengthen animal health and food safety through better veterinary diagnostics, and has become a leading professional meeting in Asia for veterinary testing and diagnosis.

The conference brings together laboratory managers and technicians, diagnostic researchers and pathologists, regulators and animal-health businesses around the latest advances in experimental pathology, molecular diagnostics, virology and serology, microbiology, veterinary testing accreditation, on-site rapid testing, laboratory safety and laboratory quality management. An exhibition of veterinary medicines, instruments, diagnostic reagents and laboratory equipment runs alongside the conference programme.
