I graduated from Glasgow Veterinary School in 1990 and spent 3 years in general veterinary practice in the North of England before moving to the R(D)SVS to study for a PhD in immunology. I subsequently specialised in veterinary pathology and became Director of Veterinary teaching in 2003. I am interested in pathology but also extremely interested in veterinary medical education and education in general. Current interests are assessment and feedback, e-learning and student support/ employability.

== What I hope to get out of this project ==
  −
This is an exciting time for veterinary education and I hope by exploring the use of web 2.0 technologies we can find out a lot about what it is good for and what it isn't. I also hope that this is the start of something big!
  −
  −
== My best learning experience ==
  −
  −
Probably seeing 'real' disease in the post mortem room and then linking it to what is written in standard texts. It's all about 'making it real'!
  −
  −
== Pathology that interests me ==
  −
  −
All of it really - (apart from bone pathology.....)
  −
General diagnostics and research pathology (infectious disease, nuclear transfer related pathology)
  −
  −
== Pathology that is difficult ==
  −
  −
Bone<br />
  −
CNS<br />
  −
Defining the histogenesis of poorly differentiated tumours<br />
  −
Cases that don't read the textbooks
  −
  −
== People I work with ==
  −
  −
[[Linda Morrison]] <br />

== Reflections ==

==DAY ONE THOUGHTS==
  −
  −
===What (three things) I learnt today===
  −
A bit more about wiki editing, linking etc.,  that others are equally enthusiastic,
  −
  −
===What I still need to learn===
  −
probably quite a lot - but not sure what yet - about to enter the great unknown......
  −
  −
===How I feel about what has happened today===
  −
see above - tiring, challenging - ready to get started.!
  −
  −
==Three weeks into the wikivet project (or thereabouts)==
  −
  −
===Sections I've been working on===
  −
* no specific ones - just occasional 'wanderings', the odd image here and there and odd typo correction
  −
  −
===What I feel I've gained so far from being involved in the project===
  −
* Main thing for me is that the community is alive, kicking and growing!!
  −
*..and that's fun :-)
  −
*
  −
  −
===Problems or issues that I've had or can forsee===
  −
*The usual 'time' problem but what I see here is still so much enthusiasm for the project which is great - the involvement of students has been a revelation!
  −
*The complexities of linking things (ref. the SI/ LI discussion) - OK - i still never got around to playing with the mindmaps!
  −
*Confliscting schemes for categorising things e.g. orla tumours - but this could turn into a 'plus'!
  −
  −
===My suggestions for improving the way the project works for the future===

===What involvement (if any!) I would like to have with the project in the future===
