The biannual World Association for the Advancement of Veterinary Parasitology (WAAVP) conference is to come to Liverpool in four years' time, it has been confirmed.

Carol O'Reilly, Liverpool Convention Bureau manager at TMP, said: "It is testament to the wealth of expertise in the city region that international conferences of this calibre are coming to Liverpool."

We look forward to welcoming WAAVP in 2015."
