MPhil Veterinary Pathology in Liverpool United Kingdom | University of Liverpool

Veterinary Pathology focuses on investigating illnesses in animals, covering both naturally occurring conditions and experimental research on diseases affecting humans and animals through animal models. The University of Liverpool's Institute of Infection and Global Health was created to unite top researchers from medical, veterinary, and basic science fields within the Faculty of Health and Life Sciences.

At the University of Liverpool, Veterinary Pathology research spans various disease areas, such as infectious diseases (caused by bacteria, viruses, and parasites), immunopathology, cancer studies, neurological disorders, degenerative conditions, toxicology, and drug safety assessments.

Our research employs diverse in situ morphological techniques, with specialized skills in immunohistology and electron microscopy, alongside molecular approaches. We study a wide range of species, including pets, livestock, wildlife, zoo animals, and laboratory specimens.

Operating across the Leahurst and Liverpool campuses, we offer postgraduate training for veterinarians pursuing specialization in veterinary pathology (DiplECVP, FRCPath) or research degrees (PhD).

Beyond our group's expertise, we maintain strong partnerships with clinical and non-clinical researchers at the University of Liverpool and other institutions. Collaborative postgraduate projects are available, combining Veterinary Pathology with the Centre for Drug Safety Science, potentially including infectious disease research.
