Job Role
Sarah joined the communications team in 2024 as a Knowledge Exchange and Communications Officer.

Biography
Sarah joined Moredun in 2011 as a PhD student working on Cryptosporidiosis in livestock. After completing her PhD, she stayed at the Moredun Research Institute as a post-doctoral researcher investigating the host-pathogens interactions of Cryptosporidium. In 2018 Sarah moved to Moredun Scientific where she worked as a Study Director and Senior Technical Officer running vaccine and therapeutic efficacy and safety studies for livestock.
She always had an interest in communications and knowledge exchange and enjoyed disseminating her own research so the move into the comms team seemed natural.
Sarah is very keen to ensure that Moredun’s scientific outputs are communicated effectively to improve livestock health, welfare and production, and she enjoys developing new approaches and working with different groups of people both internally and externally.
