Veterinarians from wildlife rescue centres of Catalunya, as well as the technitian in charge of the Marine Wildlife Stranding Network of the Regional Government of Catalunya, took part in this meeting, learning and exchanging information with veterinarians from other parts of the Mediterranean as part of their training.

This meeting consisted on two different activities. On the one side, all attendants could present some selected interesting clinical cases from their rescue centres, followed by discussion amongst the veterinarians, and suggestions on possible treatments or diagnostic procedures.

On the other side, a practical workshop was carried out at the Wildlife Heath Service haematology lab, where all attendants had the opportunity to learn and practice the techniques needed to carry out a full hematologic analysis. After this workshop, a specific guide on haematology techniques will be put together as part of the final products of this project, and given out to all marine turtle rescue centres in the Mediterranean Sea.
