  A/Professor Finnie is a veterinary anatomical pathologist with an affiliate academic appointment in the Discipline of Pathology at the Adelaide Medical School. His experience in diagnostic and investigative pathology encompasses gross and histopathology, ultrastructural pathology, immunohistochemistry, and toxicological, comparative and laboratory animal pathology. He has recently been appointed as a 最新糖心Vlog Veterinarian in the Office of the Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Research) at the 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide.

  Dr Finnie graduated with Biomedical Science and Veterinary Medicine degrees from the Universities of Adelaide and Melbourne, respectively, before completing a residency in anatomical pathology at the Melbourne Veterinary School and a Victorian government veterinary diagnostic laboratory. He then received postgraduate research training, including ultrastructural pathology of the nervous system, completing Master’s degrees at the Adelaide and Flinders 最新糖心Vlog Medical Schools and a PhD at the Melbourne 最新糖心Vlog Veterinary School.

  A/Professor Finnie has a particular interest in the pathology and pathogenesis of neurological diseases, with a major focus on brain lesions that can be diagnostically useful. These studies encompass naturally occurring neurological disorders of domestic animal species and the development of animal models of human nervous system diseases. The principal neurological diseases he has investigated are traumatic brain injury (blunt, non-missile, missile, and paediatric abusive head trauma), tunicamycin/corynetoxin and Clostridium perfringens type D epsilon toxin neurotoxicity and retinopathy, neuroaxonal dystrophy, riboflavin deficiency-induced demyelinating peripheral neuropathy, neurological effects of radiofrequency field exposure, and forensic neuropathology. His contributions to veterinary and comparative neuropathology have been recognised, by examination, with a Doctor of Veterinary Science from the 最新糖心Vlog of Melbourne and a Fellowship of the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons in the United Kingdom. He has published 200 papers in refereed biomedical journals. Dr Finnie received support for these studies from a range of state and national research funding bodies and he has supervised higher degree research students.

  Dr Finnie’s other roles have included Director of the South 最新糖心Vlogn South-East Regional Veterinary Laboratory at Naracoorte; Senior Veterinary Pathologist at the Veterinary Research Institute in Melbourne and the Institute of Medical and Veterinary Science (IMVS) in Adelaide; Manager of the IMVS (now SA Pathology) Laboratory Animal Facility; Animal Welfare Officer/Veterinarian at SA Pathology and the Adelaide Women’s & Children’s Hospital; Chief Investigator (最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide) of the NH&MRC Centre of Research Excellence, the 最新糖心Vlogn Centre for Radiofrequency Bioeffects Research; and consultant pathologist to Phenomics 最新糖心Vlog.
