Background
I graduated from Glasgow Vet School in 1994. After 11 years in general practice, I joined the Royal (Dick) School of Veterinary Studies in 2005, obtaining the RCVS Diploma in Veterinary Cardiology (2008) and RCVS specialist status (2011). I am currently Senior Lecturer in Small Animal Cardiopulmonary Medicine, and a Clinical Research Associate of The Roslin Institute.
My interests include cardiovascular-renal interactions in health and disease, accessory pathways in cats and dogs, and the molecular basis to canine MMVD. In 2018, I completed a PhD at the Queen’s Medical Research Institute, investigating endothelin-1 in renal salt handling in early type 1 diabetes mellitus (funded by Kidney Research UK and the British Heart Foundation). This has led to post-doctoral research on localising and targeting inappropriate renal sodium transport to restore circadian regulation of blood pressure in type 1 diabetes.
