Comparative and veterinary oncology
As a veterinary clinician and research scientist much of my time is spent treating dogs and cats with a variety of cancers, engaging in clinically oriented research and teaching Veterinary Oncology at undergraduate and postgraduate level.
General clinical research is directed to advance knowledge in the diagnosis and clinical staging of cancer in dogs and to advance treatment of canine cancer by surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy and more novel approaches.
Main research interests are in the epidemiology and presentation of different forms of cancer in dogs, including a particular interest in breed predispositions to cancer, especially flat-coated retrievers and histiocytic sarcoma.
