Biography
I qualified as a vet at the University of Queensland and worked in mixed practice for 10 years in Australia and the UK, before joining the APHA/VLA as a farm pathologist undertaking post-mortems and disease outbreak investigations on farms (surveillance) at Langford. I gained a MSc (Control of Infectious Diseases in Animals) from the RVC in 2008. Since the closure of the VLA laboratory at Langford in 2014, I have worked for Bristol Veterinary School as a lecturer in farm animal pathology.
