Susan Rhind

About me

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.
