Tijs Tobias, DVM MSc PhD
"My passion is to combine data and clinical manifestations for more insight into animal diseases and ultimately improve animal health. Optimal animal welfare and public health guarantees are essential preconditions, but are sometimes also at odds with each other. The tension that it entails makes the work interesting, dynamic and never boring. I look forward to the connection between practice and research, so that we can improve animal health together to an even higher level."
