British Society of Animal Science (BSAS) Equine Conference 2025
Recorded presentations connecting equine science with practical horse management.
The inaugural BSAS Equine Conference brought together researchers, clinicians, allied professionals and horse owners to explore current evidence, emerging research and practical challenges facing the equine sector. Across two days, speakers covered a wide range of topics focused on improving equine health, management and welfare, and strengthening the link between science and real-world practice.
Recognising that not everyone was able to attend the event in person, Animalweb filmed as many of the presentations as possible to make this knowledge accessible to a wider audience. These recorded sessions are being shared to support continued learning, discussion and evidence-based decision making across the equine community.
We hope these presentations provide valuable insight for those who joined us in person, as well as for everyone watching online, and help extend the impact of the conference well beyond the event itself.
