In Glasgow he also worked for 3 years towards his PhD on equine epidemiology. Marco joined our School in 2014 and is involved in teaching throughout the 5 years. In 2021 Marco became a Senior Fellow of the Higher Education Academy, in recognition of his contribution to teaching at the school. Marco's week is divided between teaching on campus and working at the associate practice Pool House Equine Clinic. Marco is also a member of the Board of the European College of Equine Internal Medicine.

Marco is active in veterinary clinical research, published extensively in the peer-review literature and has been invited speaker to several international congresses. Recently Marco has developed an interest in Artificial Intelligence and how to integrate AI tool in higher education and veterinary practice.

When not at work Marco enjoys spending time with his family, walking the dog and playing golf (badly!).

Research Summary

Research interest focus on the analysis of big datasets of electronic medical records from equine practice to answer relevant clinical questions.
