• Biography/ Background

  I completed my veterinary degree at Murdoch University and worked in small animal practice for eight years. Following an honours project on Listeria monocytogenes I became interested in the ecology of infectious diseases and completed a PhD with Prof David Hampson on intestinal spirochaetes (awarded in 1998). After completing a three year post-doc at the National Animal Disease Center in Ames, Iowa, USA, I accepted a lectureship at The University of Queensland (UQ) School of Veterinary Science in 2000. I taught veterinary microbiology and antimicrobial chemotherapy to veterinary undergraduates at UQ for 10 years and conducted research on gastrointestinal diseases, microbial ecology and virulence/antimicrobial resistance in companion animal, livestock and human bacterial pathogens. I joined The University of Adelaide School of Animal and Veterinary Sciences in January 2010 and my research areas have expanded to also include antimicrobial resistance ecology, repurposing existing drug classes for development as new anti-infectives, including pre-clinical assessment in murine bioluminescent models of infection, and the effect of antimicrobials on the gut microbiome.

  I recently established and am the inaugural Director of a new Research Centre at The University of Adelaide, the Australian Centre for Antimicrobial Resistance Ecology. I work closely with Australia's major animal industries (both livestock and companion animal) in the areas of prudent antimicrobial use, antimicrobial stewardship and confirming/ensuring that rates of resistance in animal pathogens, zoonotic and commensal bacteria remain low by international standards.

• Qualifications

  BSc (Hon) (1991)

  BVMS (Hon) (1990)

  PhD (1998)

• Teaching Interests

  I have been a teaching and research academic for the last 19 years. At the University of Adelaide, I teach undergraduate and postgraduate veterinary science students in the following areas:

  1) Veterinary introductory and systematic bacteriology and mycology (VetBiol III-Veterinary Immunology and Infectious Diseases).

  2) Antimicrobial chemotherapy, antimicrobial stewardship and prudent use guidelines, infection control and mitigation of resistance (DVMIII-Public Health Rotation).

  3) Veterinary diagnostic microbiology (DVMIII-Veterinary Pathology and Diagnostic Service Rotation).

  I am also Course Co-ordinator for the DVM-I Clinical Research Project.

   

• Research Interests

  1) Antimicrobial resistance and virulence in zooanthroponotic bacterial pathogens (extraintestinal pathogenic E. coli, Salmonella, MRSA and MRSP).

  2) Preclinical development of repurposed drugs as novel antimicrobial agents for superbug infections including early stage testing in bioluminescent mouse models of infection.

  3) Infectious diseases and gastrointestinal microbial ecology in iconic Australian wildlife and other exotic animals (e.g. retrovirus/chlamydia infection in koalas, lumpy jaw in macropods)

  4) Effect of antimicrobials on the gut microbiome

  5) Contract research for pharmaceutical companies (antimicrobial susceptibility testing for APVMA registration of new drugs , characterization of new antimicrobial agents, animal models of bacterial disease)

  Member of the Animal Health Australian Infectious Diseases Advisory Panel (since 2010).

  AIDAP is an independent panel of companion animal veterinary specialists sponsored by Zoetis. It is currently developing evidence-based policy and procedures to advise companion animal veterinarians in Australia on the treatment of infectious diseases in dogs and cats, particularly to mitigate the development of antibiotic resistance. AIDAP has conducted the first survey on antibiotic prescribing practices by Australian companion animal veterinarians in over 20 years, and has developed antibiotic prudent use guidelines for the recommended treatment of the most common infectious diseases in dogs and cats in Australia and infection control and biosecurity guidelines for companion animal practice.

  Voting Member of the Clinical Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) Veterinary Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing (VAST) Sub-committee (Since 2017).
