We are delighted to hear that Julie Cory, veterinary nursing lecturer at our Huntingdon centre, has recently had her first paper published in the Journal of Veterinary Behaviour on the comparisons between humans and companion animals (cats and dogs) with regard to age-related cognitive dysfunction (Alzheimers).
Julie first developed a keen interest in behaviour and its links to medical disease, especially neurology, through her job as a veterinary nurse. The paper looks at the development and management of cognitive decline in older animals, comparing this to the suggested risk factors and treatment options available for Alzheimer’s disease.
We are all very proud of Julie, this is an incredible achievement!
