Dr. Wilson-Robles commented: "I am delighted to have the opportunity to introduce the potential use of the Nu.Q(TM) technology to the veterinary oncology community at this prestigious event. It is exciting to share some of the encouraging early work we have done together with Volition.

I believe the early identification of cancer has the potential to significantly impact veterinary oncology as we know it and thereby look forward to developing Nu.Q(TM) Vet further."

Nathan Dewsbury,Chief Executive Officer of Texas-based Volition Veterinary Diagnostics Development LLC will also be in attendance at the meeting. Commenting on the conference,Mr. Dewsbury noted: "There are currently no accurate,simple,affordable cancer screening tests available in veterinary medicine and yet 25% of dogs will develop cancer at some stage in their lives. At Volition Veterinary we believe that early diagnosis is the key and are working hard to develop Nu.Q(TM) Vet products which can simply and affordably help diagnose cancer and a range of other diseases through a routine blood draw. I am delighted to attend this conference and look forward to meeting veterinary oncologists involved in private practice,academic practice as well as those who participate in research and development."
