Prof. Roberta Blake

My academic career started by completing a degree in Veterinary Medicine. After that, I completed my residency in Large Animal Surgery, where I became interested in developing my teaching skills. I completed an MSc and a PhD in Veterinary Surgery, with my research focusing on the use of stem cells in horses. During my PhD, I started teaching at levels 4-6, and as soon as I finished my PhD, I started teaching for levels 7-8 as well. My career has been focused on teaching, researching, and supervising students. I came to the UK at the beginning of 2011 to work on research related to the use of stem cells and regenerative medicine in animals at the Royal Veterinary College and University College of London. Since 2016, I have been teaching at Writtle University College, now Anglia Ruskin University, delivering modules from level 4 to level 7. I am also Head of Research for the school.
