معرفی
Dr. Alison Neef is a researcher in the School of Agricultural, Environmental and Veterinary Sciences at Charles Sturt University, Australia. Her work focuses on veterinary pathology, epidemiology, and infectious diseases affecting companion and production animals.
Research Interests: Dr. Neef specializes in the investigation of sudden and unexpected death in cats and dogs, neuropathology in perinatal lambs, equine tumours, and molecular virology including canine circovirus and Torque teno virus in pigeons. Her research combines histopathological analysis, epidemiological methods, and molecular diagnostics to understand disease mechanisms and improve animal health outcomes.
Publication Trends: Over the past six years, her research has evolved from neuropathology and mortality studies in livestock to include advanced virological investigations using recombinant protein expression and genomic characterization. This reflects a growing emphasis on molecular tools in veterinary diagnostics and surveillance.
- Scientific Awards: No awards mentioned in the provided text.
Advising and Grants: While specific students or grant funding are not listed, her involvement in multicentre epidemiological studies and collaborative research indicates active participation in team-based science and likely engagement with external funding bodies. She frequently collaborates with veterinary pathologists, virologists, and epidemiologists across Australia.
Labs and Teams: Dr. Neef is part of a multidisciplinary research network focused on animal health, working within teams investigating disease outbreaks, mortality patterns, and novel pathogen detection in domestic and wild animals.
