Specialist in Veterinary Neurology, Animal Referral Hospital Sinnamon Park, presents:
Neurology: cell culture, synapses, seizures and seals
As a veterinary neurologist, I have had fun playing in many areas of the Neurosciences, from the research lab to the Neurology Clinic. This talk will highlight some of those activities that have tickled my neuronal circuitry.
- Christine Thomson
Bio: Dr Thomson graduated from University of Melbourne in 1983, completed a small animal medical and surgical neurology residency at North Carolina State College of Veterinary Medicine, USA, and a PhD in neuroscience at University of Glasgow, UK. She is a Diplomate of both the American and European Veterinary Colleges of Neurology. I’ve worked at Melbourne, Glasgow, and Massey Universities, and latterly, in the Veterinary Medicine Department at University of Alaska, Fairbanks. She has recently swapped Alaska’s climate temperature of -30 degrees Celcius for Brisbane's 30 degrees Celcius and is now working in private referral practice at the Brisbane Animal Referral Hospital. Along with her colleague, Dr Caroline Hahn, they have distilled decades of study and teaching about clinical neuroanatomy and neurological localization into ‘Veterinary Neuroanatomy: a Clinical Approach' (Elsevier 2012).
