Biography

David graduated from Glasgow Veterinary School in 1967 and initially entered mixed, mainly agricultural practice in Scotland.  David returned to Glasgow a year later and took a temporary position to teach veterinary anatomy. He then proceeded to teach at the Western College of Veterinary Medicine in Saskatoon, Canada in 1969. He returned to Glasgow in 1970 and spent some years teaching Veterinary Anatomy and proceeding towards his PhD in study of aspects of bone development in birds compared to mammals, which he completed in 1977. He made a move to Human Anatomy to learn about the human body, which led to a long period teaching Gross Anatomy to medical and dental students. While here he became interested in more specialized areas such as Animal Developmental Biology and the essential neuroscience instruction for students of Speech Pathology. David has worked abroad and helped to develop new Veterinary Schools in Kenya, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Trinidad and Tobago and was the Inaugural Dean of the School of Veterinary Medicine in St. George’s University, Grenada in 1998-2003.
