The LEVUCELL SB International Technical Meeting will explore the different stages of the pig production cycle. The morning session will be dedicated to sows with a special emphasis on the maternal imprinting concept, while the afternoon session will be dedicated to post-weaning piglets and the future R&D outlook – with some new insights on fattening pigs! We look forward to welcoming you to France, where the first LEVUCELL SB meeting was organized.
Access to the Institut Pasteur meeting room is at the following address:
28, rue du Docteur Roux 75015 Paris
You must show an ID card or passport at the entrance.
