Education Event: Nature or Nurture?

Horses in a field

This year’s TBA’s equine health educational event, named ‘Nature or Nurture?’ will take place on Thursday 17 July 2025 at Granary Barns, Woodditton, near Newmarket from 10am to 4pm.   

Using the insight and findings from several TBA co-funded veterinary research projects, a panel of experts will lead a dynamic and thought-provoking all-day event, with discussions around the cutting-edge world of genetic predisposition, epigenetics, environmental influences and management practices, and how these powerful forces shape the health, performance and potential of tomorrow’s champion racehorses.  

There will be five 45-minute sessions throughout the day, each covering a specific topic, with the opportunity to network over lunch, and a dedicated Q&A session to round off the event.

Whether you're a breeder, trainer, owner or simply passionate about bloodstock, this is your opportunity to be at the forefront of innovation in this area. 

This event is FREE for TBA Full members and TBA Access subscribers. For non-members tickets will cost just £60 and include a one-off 12-month subscription to TBA Access, allowing you access to all the content on TB-Ed completely free of charge.
