Susan K. Armstrong

Susan K. Armstrong is a Senior Lecturer in Veterinary Clinical Research at the University of Surrey, affiliated with the School of Veterinary Medicine and Department of Veterinary Clinical Sciences. Her research focuses on biomarkers for canine diseases, equine parasitology, and diagnostic tools in veterinary medicine. She holds advanced degrees including an M.Sci (1st class), BVMS (Hons), PhD, and certAVP qualifications.

Education: M.Sci (1st), BVMS (Hons), PhD, certAVP, MRCVS.

Her studies investigate molecular mechanisms in animal diseases, including microRNA biomarkers for pancreatitis in dogs, feline hepatic health, and equine respiratory and cardiac conditions. She also explores antimicrobial efficacy and hospital infection control, such as MRSA prevalence in veterinary settings. Her work emphasizes translational research with clinical applications.

Advising and grants: No students listed, but collaborations include studies on anthelmintic efficacy, fibrinolytic therapies, and diagnostic biomarkers. Her research spans multiple species and integrates clinical, molecular, and epidemiological approaches.

Labs/Teams: Not explicitly detailed, but her work suggests involvement in veterinary clinical research teams and collaborations with institutions like the University of Glasgow Small Animal Hospital.
