“What I love most about my profession is the possibility to use the most up to date scientific knowledge to benefit my patients and to help design studies based on daily clinical experience – for what is most needed in practice. Of equal importance to me is the sharing of knowledge with my veterinary colleagues in lectures and conversations”
