Chris is a leading researcher in equine orthopedics at the University of Melbourne, where he employs a multidisciplinary approach involving biomechanics, microstructural analysis, and epidemiology. His work integrates clinical focus, drawing on his expertise as a specialist equine surgeon at the Veterinary Teaching Hospital, where he has been since November 2004, investigating and treating lameness in horses.

Chris's journey includes specialist training at the University of Sydney, where he earned a PhD, followed by work as a specialist surgeon and scientist at the Animal Health Trust in Newmarket, England. He later ran his own referral practice and scintigraphy unit at the Newcastle Equine Centre from 1999 to 2004.

Chris has a strong track record of lecturing and publishing extensively on lameness and musculoskeletal injury prevention. His current research interests focus on equine limb function, subchondral bone, and mathematical modeling of equine limb injuries

David has more than 40 years of leadership experience in developing and launching novel medical imaging devices. Since 2016, David has served as the co-founder and CEO of Asto CT, leading the development and commercial launch of Equina®, the world’s-first biaxial CT scanner customized to image the distal limbs and head/neck of a standing sedated horse.

Prior to founding Asto CT, David was a chief scientist and R&D leader at GE Healthcare where he brought multiple FDA cleared medical imaging products to market. David came to GE Healthcare through the acquisition of Lunar, where David led the engineering and R&D efforts to develop practice changing bone densitometry imaging technology.

David holds an Adjunct Professor position with UW -Madison Medical Physics since 2020. David's current focus is on improving the diagnosis and treatment of conditions of the distal limb and diseases of the head and neck in horses.

Kate earned her VMD from the University of Pennsylvania in 2012, after obtaining a degree in biochemistry from Tufts University. She then completed a rotating internship in equine medicine, surgery, and critical care at the New Bolton Center in Pennsylvania. Following her internship, Kate pursued a diagnostic imaging residency at Tufts University's Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine.

In 2016, Kate became board certified in diagnostic imaging by the American College of Veterinary Radiology (ACVR). That same year, she joined the faculty at the New Bolton Center, University of Pennsylvania, as an Assistant Professor of Diagnostic Imaging. Kate's clinical work focuses on the use of advanced imaging technologies such as CT, MRI, and a robotics-controlled cone-beam CT system designed for use with standing horses.

Kate is also involved in clinical research on the veterinary applications of rapid prototyping, including 3D printing. In her free time, she enjoys riding her Warmblood jumper, Catapult, and spending time with her husband, Zach, and their Labradors.

Kevin, a Missouri native, graduated from the University of Missouri College of Veterinary Medicine in 1983. He began his career in private equine practice, working in Maryland and Delaware for three years. In 1989, Kevin completed a three-year equine surgery residency and earned a Master of Science degree at the University of Illinois in Urbana-Champaign. During this time, he gained expertise in statics and dynamics, experimental stress analysis, biomedical instrumentation, and signal processing.

After finishing his surgery residency, Kevin returned to private practice near Detroit, Michigan, focusing on equine surgery and lameness. In 1990, he joined the University of Missouri as a clinical instructor and was promoted to Assistant Professor in 1991, and to Associate Professor in 1998. He is board certified by the American College of Veterinary Surgery.

Kevin's primary research interest lies in using computer-assisted gait analysis to diagnose lameness in horses. He is an active member of several professional organizations, including the Missouri Veterinary Medical Association, the American Association of Equine Practitioners, and the American Veterinary Medical Association.

Mathieu is an Associate Professor of Diagnostic Imaging at the School of Veterinary Medicine at the University of California, Davis, where he has been a faculty member since 2007. He earned his DVM degree from the National Veterinary School of Lyon in France in 2002 and a Master's degree from the University of Montreal in Canada in 2004.

After completing his radiology residency at the University of Pennsylvania, Mathieu became a diplomate of both the American College of Veterinary Radiology and the European College of Veterinary Diagnostic Imaging in 2007.

Mathieu's research focuses on musculoskeletal imaging in horses, with over 50 publications in peer-reviewed journals. He has been a pioneer in the use of positron emission tomography (PET) in horses, contributing to the development of both research and clinical applications.

Mikael is a Swedish veterinarian and a long-time partner at Equine Analysis with a Ph.D. in equine biomechanics from the University of Uppsala. Since 1996, Dr. Holmstroem has been a prominent speaker at international conferences on horse physiology and locomotion. He has authored numerous papers on these topics and was recently featured in the publication Equine Locomotion.

Mikael is the chief developer of Fotoselect®, and his current research focuses on phenotypic heritability. He holds both a Doctorate and a Ph.D. in Veterinary Medicine from the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences. In addition to his veterinary expertise, Mikael is a skilled mathematician and programmer.

He compiles and analyzes data from StrideSAFE sensors to detect movement abnormalities and stride changes. Mikael leads the research effort in identifying early signs of pathology in the stride of racing thoroughbreds.
