The 2009 conference marks 32 years since the inception of “Recent Advances”. Over this time, “Recent Advances” has developed from a small, informal meeting of animal nutrition scientists, to Australia’s leading animal nutrition conference, attracting researchers and practitioners from throughout the world. This conference is unique in Australia as it brings together the commercial and research sectors of the animal nutrition community. The Conference covers the nutrition of all animals where we encourage our speakers to speculate on future directions and to explore new ideas particularly where these cross animal species or conventional disciplinary boundaries.
