Dear Venomland Members and Friends, Venomland is a little more than 6 years old now and by far the biggest Hot Snake community on the Planet! We want to thank all of you who made Venomland the leading Board. We are also very thankful to our Moderators and Admins for years of hard work. Now, it is time to move on. I have been thinking how to proceed and what to do with our beloved board as we reach a size, that we need to make drastic changes to secure the future of our community. As of now, Venomland is hosted by a free (well mostly free) hosting service. That was good for the first years but now we need to find a new way to run our forum. I have spend hundreds of Dollars over the years to keep Venomland up and running, and i have done so with pleasure. Now, we need your help! We need to come up with several thousand dollars for our Venomland 2.0 project, which i frankly cant pay for any longer by myself. So Venomland is asking his Friends and Members for the first time for their financial Support. Please help to keep Venomland alive, and let us move on to a new, better Portal in the Future! Every Dollar is helping us a great deal. I know, its hard times for everyone, but please spare a few Dollar for our community. If you have only 10 Dollars to spare, we are grateful, if it is more, it would be awesome. We are planning to develop a very new Venomland, with real community functions, a forum like you are already loving it and a real (online) Hot Snake Magazin. Also, there will be download areas for scientific papers, Wallpapers and more. Again folks, we can only do that if you all help. Please send me a Private Message if you want to keep Venomland alive, i will provide you with the details on how to donate Money. For now, we can accept money from creditcards via skrill (please google it, its a free service - account-details will be forwarded to you) and paypal. All the best, and for a (hopefully) nice future of our Board. Mario

I am pleased to announce that our paper, describing the production and preclinical assessment of the first new snake antivenom for the Australasian region in more than 50 years, has been published today by PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases:

http://www.plosntds.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pntd.0001144

PLoS NTD is an open-access journal, so the paper is freely available to anyone who wishes to read or download it.

Cheers


David

*Note taken David , an extremely important paper in content that should be read not once but two or three times and perhaps saved and printed for the technicians own medical files.

*Instituto Clodomiro Picado is surely a leader in their field but even they are in trouble of losing there facilities in the next twelve months and are fighting for finances.

* Mexican antivenom did not neutralize South American Crotaline envenomation at the prescribe dose, may have been specie specific.

Hi Albert,

I think ICP have resolved their problems of land tenure. In fact this week they are being awarded the 'Dr Lee Jong-wook Memorial Prize in Public Health at the World Health Assembly, by the World Health Organisation as recognition for their many substantial contributions to antivenom production and research for the developing world.

Cheers
