Research interests

I am a veterinary educator with an interest in pedagogy and scholarship of education - my main areas of interest are assessment, study skills, curriculum development and EDI. I teach veterinary anatomy and am currently the course leader/level coordinator for the 2nd year of the Veterinary Medicine (BVMS) programme.

I am also interested in infectious respiratory diseases in companion animals, especially within the context of shelters and other multi-animal environments.
