About Research Podcasts – Veterinary Science on the Move
After a seven-year hiatus, the RVC podcast returns with Dominic Barfield taking the reins and talking to the researchers at all stages in their careers about the work that they are doing at the UK’s oldest veterinary school. Continuing from the back catalogue from Dr Mattias Kleinz (episodes 1 to 20) and Dr Mark Cleasby (episodes 20-50) Dom (episodes 50-63) with the help of Brian Cox will get you back up to speed with how the Royal Veterinary College, the University of London's veterinary school, is pushing the frontiers in veterinary medicine and basic science. We will provide you with an insight into the current research being undertaken and those dedicated researchers in the pursuit of answering those questions to benefit animal health and welfare, today, tomorrow, and beyond. We hope that you enjoy it.
Welcome to the RVC research podcast, where we are joined by Prof Dirk Werling, Professor of Molecular Biology here at the RVC. Prof Werling is a regular contributor to this podcast over the years and is always keen to showcase what research that we are doing at the RVC. Today we discuss Organoids, in vitro cellular constructs that resemble structure and function of organs, following on from our previous podcast on organ-on-a chip. From disease modelling, treatment trials and individual medicine, this is a very interesting space. We hope that you enjoy.

64 Dr Camilla Pegram
Welcome to the RVC research podcast, where we are joined by Dr Camilla Pegram, Lecturer in Veterinary Epidemiology here at the RVC. Dr Pegram is RVC through and through have completed her veterinary degree here and then returned for a Master’s and has recently completed a PhD looking at applying casual inference methods to emulate randomised clinical trials using VetCompass anonymised clinical records. If you wish to understand, like me, what casual inference is and how it can help, have a listen. We hope that you enjoy.

63 Organ-on-a-chip with Professor Dirk Werling
Welcome to the RVC research podcast, where we are joined by Dirk Werling, Professor of Molecular Immunology about the technology which is now available to us at the RVC ‘organ on a chip’. Professor Werling shares his obvious passion for this technology and how with his lead involvement in the RVC’s new Centre for Vaccinology and Regenerative Medicine, this can help our research and help with the 4R principle of animal welfare. We hope that you enjoy listening to our conversation as much as we enjoyed recording it.
