Bruce is the hospital director at Donnington Grove Veterinary Group in Newbury. His interests include colic, arthroscopy and fracture repair. He has been one of the pioneers of surgery in the standing horse, and he is one of the most experienced equine surgeons in the UK. He has lectured and taught around the world on the techniques and results of equine surgery.

Dr. Kawcak is Professor of Orthopedics at Colorado State University.  Dr. Kawcak is one of a team of researchers working to find ways to prevent and treat catastrophic injuries in equine athletes. Kawcak is assessing three-dimensional imaging techniques, MRI and CT to diagnose early joint disease and microscopic joint injuries before these develop into serious injuries.  Working with researchers in biomedical engineering the team has developed biomechanical models to assess risk factors specific to each individual athlete with implications for human bone and joint disease.

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

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.
