I am a European small animal medicine diplomat who runs a research programme focussed on the genetics, physiological and molecular mechanisms causing obesity and other metabolic or neurological diseases. My research focus is on canine obesity genetics with a strong focus in translating the findings we have in animal genetics into research also of relevance to human health.
My undergraduate training was at the Dick Vet in Edinburgh, followed by internship and internal medicine residency training at Liverpool and Cambridge university teaching hospitals. My PhD was at the Institute of Metabolic Science in Cambridge and I have run an independent research group in Cambridge since 2014, now based at the Physiology Department of the University.
