''"Like many students, I started vet school with the sole intention of being a mixed-practice vet. However, after the second year of the vet course I took the opportunity to take a year out to try research. After two long years of physiology, biochemistry and anatomy this was an amazing chance to try research and use my brain to really think about something, rather than just memorising vast amounts of information!''

''Upon graduation, in addition to working in practice, there were many career options open to me. Having both a vet degree and a PhD meant I was a strong candidate for a number of positions, including research, industry, academia/teaching or further specialist training (eg a residency). In order to develop my clinical skills and experience, I worked for a year in mixed practice in the United States before attending the anatomic pathology residency training programme at North Carolina State University in Raleigh, USA.''

''As a Lecturer and Clinical Research Associate, I now have the opportunity to use my clinical veterinary experience, research background and specialist training in pathology in a number of ways. These include teaching veterinary students, teaching on postgraduate programmes, participating in the diagnostic pathology service and working in experimental and comparative pathology research - focusing on questions which have direct and practical relevance to both human and animal disease."''
