The Swiss Archives of Veterinary Medicine (SAT) is the oldest veterinary journal in the world. First published in 1816, the magazine has appeared monthly in German and French ever since. The specialist and association journal informs its readership about the latest findings in veterinary medical research and reports on current topics in everyday veterinary practice.

Responsible for scientific editing: Dr Hanspeter Steinmetz 
Responsible for editing the GST Bulletin: Nicole Jegerlehner

The scientific journal 
The SAT publishes review articles, original papers, and case reports from all areas of veterinary medicine and related sciences. The scientific studies undergo a peer review process before publication. 

The association journal 
The SAT is the official organ of the Swiss Veterinary Society. In addition to scientific articles, the GST Bulletin provides information on the latest professional and association policy developments and provides helpful articles from the fields of law and business. It also contains announcements from the sections, news and reports on activities, conferences and further training, news from the Vetsuisse faculties in Bern and Zurich, and reviews of veterinary books.
