Robyn is one of the most respected Veterinary Scientists in Australia, and has spent over 30 years working with small holder farmers in Africa, Asia and Oceania.

The Australian Veterinary Association recognised her distinguished contribution to international veterinary science by awarding her the Kesteven Medal, while the Governor General of Australia invested her as an Officer of the Order of Australia for services to veterinary science as a researcher and educator.

She’s currently an Honorary Professor at the Australian National University, working on sustainable food systems in the development policy centre, as well as a Senior Consulting Fellow at the Centre for Universal Health in London, involved with livestock and aquaculture policy, global food and nutrition security research.

We’re incredibly lucky to have her on our team, where she continues to focus on sustainable food systems, food and nutrition security, infectious disease prevention, gender equity and science communication.
