Dr Valentina Busin

  • PGR Supervisor (School of Biodiversity, One Health & Veterinary Medicine)

Biography

Valentina graduated from the University of Turin, Italy, in 2007 and worked in mixed and farm animal practices for 3 years, before undertaking a farm animal residency and obtaining the Diploma for the European College of Small Ruminant Health Management in 2014. She subsequently completed a mechanical engineering PhD program jointly between Moredun and Heriot-Watt University. She is a European recognised specialist in small ruminant medicine and has worked as a senior clinician in disease investigation at the University of Glasgow, teaching and assessing undergraduate and postgraduate students, managing a post mortem surveillance service and conducting research within the fields of endemic and zoonotic diseases. She is now an affiliate and postgraduate supervisor within the School of Veterinary Medicine and has joined the European Commission for the Control of Foot-and-Mouth Disease (EuFMD) as capacity development and learning specialist. Valentina has lectured nationally and internationally and authored multiple scientific papers. Her interests focus on small ruminants, food security, livestock medicine and production, animal disease diagnostics and surveillance.
