Dr John Tulloch from the Institute of Infection, Veterinary and Ecological Sciences (IVES) has been awarded a Fellowship of the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons (RCVS) for meritorious contributions to the profession.
This prestigious honour recognises his outstanding impact on the veterinary field and his continued commitment to advancing professional standards.
RCVS aims to enhance society through improved animal health and welfare. They do this by setting, upholding and advancing the educational, ethical and clinical standards of veterinary surgeons and veterinary nurses.
The RCVS Fellowship celebrates outstanding contributions in three areas: knowledge, clinical practice, and the profession. Its purpose is to advance veterinary standards by creating a vibrant community of experts who drive innovation, share knowledge, and champion the importance of veterinary science. Dr Tulloch received the Fellowship at the RCVS Fellowship Day at One Great George Street, London.
Dr Tulloch said: “I am deeply honoured to receive this Fellowship. It reflects the dedication of the many colleagues and collaborators I have worked with across veterinary and public health. I remain committed to using research, teaching, and collaboration to improve animal and human public health.”
Professor Mark Senior, Joint Dean of IVES commented: “This is a well-deserved recognition of John’s outstanding contributions to the profession.”
This year’s Fellowship Day also highlighted the strength of Liverpool’s presence. Former Dean of IVES Professor Matthew Baylis delivered the keynote lecture, while Professor George Oikonomou served as a judge for the Future Fellows competition. Fellow Liverpool RCVS Fellows Professor Jo Dukes-McEwan and Professor Debbie Archer were also in attendance.
