Meet Our Science Committee

We are fortunate to have a wonderful panel of scientific advisors at Humanimal Trust.  They work independently and their key aim is to support the Trust and to provide our Trustees with recommendations for funding of projects within the framework of current funding opportunities.

Humanimal Trust wishes to support research, which aims to deliver the objectives of Humanimal Trust and bring about a better understanding and implementation of One Medicine. We will provide funds to support projects, which come under the multidisciplinary research in specific clinical areas and promote the concept of One Medicine internationally.

You can read their individual profiles below and we would like to thank them all for the support to help make One Medicine a reality!
