Sam is a UK veterinary graduate, with over 25 years’ experience in clinical practice and academia. After graduating from the University of Bristol in 1995, Sam spent time in mixed practice in the UK before returning to Bristol to undertake a PhD on upper airway collapse in Thoroughbred racehorses. Subsequently, she worked at the University of Bristol as a lecturer in equine exercise physiology and ran the Equine Sports Medicine Centre before moving to the University of Adelaide, Australia in 2010 during the start-up of the new veterinary school, where she is currently employed as an Associate Professor in Veterinary Physiology.Sam's clinical and research field is in equine sports medicine, with a particular focus on cardio-respiratory causes of poor performance in equine athletes. She is internationally renowned for her pioneering work on the development of overground endoscopy and is currently leading projects relating to upper airway dysfunction, equine asthma, exercise associated cardiac arrhythmia and sudden cardiac death, and gastric ulceration.Sam is recognised nationally and internationally as a leader in the discipline of equine sports medicine. In 2022, she was awarded a prestigious Fellowship of the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons (RCVS), for meritorious contributions to clinical practice. She is a Diplomate of the American College of Veterinary Sports Medicine and Rehabilitation, an Australian and RCVS registered Specialist in Equine Sports Medicine and a founding member of the Veterinary Sports Medicine and Rehabilitation Chapter of the Australian and New Zealand College of Veterinary Scientists (ANZCVS). She is also Chair of the International Committee for the International Conference on Equine Exercise Physiology (ICEEP). Over her career, Sam has published over 70 journal articles and book chapters and delivered more than 175 conference and continuing education presentations.
