About

After graduating from the University of Sydney, Scott worked for almost a decade in small and mixed animal practices in Australia and the United Kingdom.  

He later returned to the University of Sydney to complete an internship and then residency in veterinary pathology. During his eight years there, including two teaching Veterinary Clinical Pathology, Scott obtained membership of the Australian and New Zealand College of Veterinary Scientists, completed board certification of the American College of Veterinary Pathologists, and was awarded his Masters degree reporting disease within a captive-bred dasyurid population.  

Scott subsequently accepted a senior lectureship in Veterinary Clinical Pathology at the University of Adelaide. During his seven years at the Roseworthy campus, he contributed to the reporting of anatomic and clinical pathology submissions, and the teaching of pathology in the Doctor of Veterinary Medicine program. Scott has recently completed his PhD, documenting the contribution of disease to reduced fecundity and pup survival, in South Australia’s endangered Australian sea lion population.  

His diagnostic interests include proliferative disease in companion animals, and pathology within free-ranging Australian native wildlife populations.
