Research Interest

Research focuses on pain management in both horses and small animals, with emphasis on the development and evaluation of novel regional anesthesia techniques. Clinical applicability and efficacy of these techniques are assessed, supported by a strong pharmacokinetic foundation to ensure evidence-based implementation.

Teaching Interest

Teaching interests include veterinary anesthesia, analgesia, and clinical pharmacology, with emphasis on regional anesthesia techniques and their practical application through simulation-based and case-oriented teaching.

Clinical Interest

Clinical interests center on veterinary anesthesia and analgesia, particularly the use of regional anesthesia techniques to improve perioperative pain management in horses and small animals. Special focus is placed on multimodal analgesia and refining anesthetic protocols to enhance patient safety and recovery.
