Address

CABI, Nosworthy Way, Wallingford, Oxfordshire, OX10 8DE, United Kingdom

I manage the Compendium Team, which develops, maintains and updates the Animal Health and Production Compendium, Aquaculture Compendium, Crop Protection Compendium, Forestry Compendium and Invasive Species Compendium.


These products collate information within their subject areas and through intelligent data management, linkage and user interfaces provide capacity for efficient knowledge transfer, problem solving and better decision making. In this role I have specialized in project management and knowledge management, and have gained valuable experience in outreach projects involving training and monitoring and evaluation. I’ve worked at CABI since 1996, joining the CAB Abstracts Animal Health Team as a parasitology specialist and have been working for the Compendium Team since 2000.
