Danièlle Gunn-Moore graduated with distinction from the R(D)SVS, University of Edinburgh, in 1991. After a year in small animal practice she joined The Feline Centre, University of Bristol, initially as the Feline Advisory Bureau Scholar, then as the Duphar Feline Fellow, and completed a PhD study into Feline Infectious Peritonitis in 1997. After a short period as Lecturer in Veterinary Pathology, University of Bristol, she returned to Edinburgh to establish the Feline Clinic and is a Professor of Feline Medicine. She is interested in all aspects of feline medicine; she is an internationally recognised expert in her area, lectures extensively and her work has been published widely. In 2009, she was awarded the BSAVA Woodrow Award for outstanding contribution in the field of small animal veterinary medicine; in 2011, she was awarded the International Society for Feline Medicine/Hill’s award for outstanding contributions to Feline Medicine. In 2017 she was elected a Fellow of the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons and also a Fellow of the Royal Society of Biology. 

As a RCVS recognised Specialist in Feline Medicine, I am interested in all aspects of feline internal medicine, though I have current projects on Mycobacterial infections, feline genomics and dementia.

As a RCVS recognised Specialist in Feline Medicine, I am interested in all aspects of feline internal medicine. However, I have particular interests and welcome discussion into the possibility of working (including postgraduate qualifications) on the following areas: 

1) All aspects of mycobacterial infections in cats and dogs including, aetiopathogenesis, epidemiology, clinical signs, diagnostics, therapeutic protocols and prognostic indicators. I maintain the national data-base for cases of tuberculosis and non-tuberculous mycobacterial infections in cats and dogs (in collaboration with AHVLA, Prof J Hope of The Roslin Institute). I am also interested in other feline infectious diseases including Tritrichomonas foetus, Ehrlichia, Neorickettsia, Anaplasma species, Rickettsia species, haemoplasmas, Bartonella species, and Toxoplasma (in collaboration with Prof. M. Lappin, University of Colorado). I have particular interests in newly emerging infectious or potentially zoonotic diseases in cats, and the role of cats as sentinels of infection. Current staff include PhD students Conor O’Halloran and Jordan Mitchell (funded by BBSRC-CASE and BBSRC-DTP).

2) The Feline genome project in collaboration with Dr J Schoenbeck and Prof R Mellanby, Roslin Institute. Current staff include Research Assistant Jenni Irving-McGrath.

3) Gerontology include multicentre studies looking into aging changes in feline brains, in collaboration with Dr. E. Head of Sanders-Brown Center on Aging, University of Kentucky , Sir Prof Simon Lovestone, University of Oxford, and Prof F. Gunn-Moore, University of St Andrews; and large epidemiological studies looking at the prevalence and development of cognitive dysfunction syndrome in cats, with Dr Sarah Caney and Vicky Halls. Current staff include PhD student Lorena Sordo Sordo (funded by CONACYT).
