The 35th Annual Charles Heumphreus Memorial Lecture will be held on-site at the UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine on October 27, 2024. The lectures will focus on equine gait analysis and podiatry and there will be an exclusive demonstration and lab on Objective Assessment of Shoeing. Our distinguished presenters include Chief of Farrier Services at New Bolton Center, PA Patrick Reilly Grad.Dip.ELR and Professor Thilo Pfau, PhD.
The Charles Heumphreus Memorial Lecture is an event that has been offered free to farriers and equine veterinarians since 1987. Known simply as “The Heumphreus,” it is the first endowed lecture at the UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine and has attracted an impressive list of farrier and veterinary speakers over the past 34 years. The endowment was founded by Dr. Tim O’Brien, UC Davis emeritus faculty radiologist, to honor Charlie’s 18 years of service as the farrier at the UC Davis Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital.
