Welcome
Dear Colleagues and Friends,On behalf of the Organising Committee of the ICARE 2026, we are pleased to invite you to join us in Lisbon, Portugal, 11-15 April 2026 for the 7th International Conference on Avian, Herpetological, Exotic Mammal, Zoo and Wildlife Medicine.
We will combine an exciting conference covering the latest information, review and key stone lectures, as well as wet labs and masterclasses. A programme is being put together with renowned international speakers and will be available soon. The conference, as usual, will attract a wide range of delegates, including specialists, professionals, clinicians, scientists, students, veterinary nurses, animal caretakers and decision makers.
Lisbon, the capital of Portugal, is a city rich in charm and history. Over the past century, it has become one of Europe’s most vibrant cultural hubs, with numerous museums and galleries. The picturesque neighborhoods of Alfama and Bairro Alto, with their narrow streets and colorful houses, give the city a unique atmosphere. The imposing Sé Cathedral and the majestic São Jorge Castle offer stunning views over the city and the Tagus River. Lisbon is a perfect destination for culture and history enthusiasts.
ICARE 2026 will be held at the Congress Center Lisbon (CCL). This modern venue offers state-of-the-art facilities and exceptional services, making it an ideal location for our conference. Situated in the heart of Lisbon, the CCL provides easy access to the city’s rich cultural and historical attractions.
On behalf of ICARE and the Organising Committee, we look forward to welcoming you to Lisbon!
