Jane Heller is an Associate Professor in Veterinary Epidemiology and Public Health at the School of Agricultural, Environmental and Veterinary Sciences at Charles Sturt University. She is also the director of an epidemiological consultancy, ‘Heller Consulting’. A/Prof Heller trained in Epidemiology at the University of Glasgow (PhD and ECVPH residency) and has worked in Australia since 2009. Jane applies her epidemiological knowledge to many areas, but is particularly interested in infectious disease and zoonotic transfer of pathogens, with a focus on antimicrobial resistance and stewardship (AMR and AMS), and Q fever. She is increasingly interested in the way that social aspects influence zoonotic disease and the uptake (or lack thereof) of educational resources, collaborative systems and preventive measures. Jane co-founded the AMR Vet Collective (www.amrvetcollective.com) and associated free online learning program (www.vetams.org), a Not for Profit, developed with the aim of translating the science around AMR and AMS and engaging veterinarians in this space.
