Course summary

Veterinary pathology is a fascinating field that plays a crucial role in understanding diseases across non-human species. Our Veterinary Pathology programme includes research into naturally occurring diseases and the experimental study of both human and non-human diseases using animal models.IntroductionThe Institute of Infection, Veterinary, and Ecological Sciences (IVES) brings together leading medical, veterinary and basic science researchers from across the Faculty of Health and Life Sciences. Our veterinary pathology research involves many areas of disease, including infectious diseases (bacterial, virological and parasitic diseases), immunopathology, oncology, neuropathology, degenerative diseases, toxicology and drug safety.Our work uses many different morphological in situ techniques, with expertise in immunohistology and image analysis, as well as molecular methods. Species may include domestic animals (companion animal and livestock), forensic veterinary pathology, wildlife and zoo species and laboratory animals.Based at both the Leahurst and Liverpool campuses, postgraduate training opportunities exist for veterinary surgeons to specialise in veterinary pathology (DiplECVP, FRCPath) and to obtain a postgraduate research degree (MPhil, PhD).We have well-established collaborations with other clinical and non-clinical researchers, both within the University of Liverpool and at other institutions. Inter-disciplinary postgraduate opportunities as part of a collaboration between Veterinary Pathology and the Centre for Drug Safety Science, which may also include the study of infectious diseases, are also available.Research topicsVeterinary Forensic PathologyDigital Pathology and AIZoo and WildlifeVeterinary MicrobiologyVeterinary Clinical Pathology.
