Introduction

I received my veterinary degree in 2014 at the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine of the then Szent István University. This year I started working as a departmental veterinarian at the Department of Pathology. After that, under the supervision of Dr. Gyula Balka, I have been working as a PhD student since September 2015, then as a department veterinarian from 2018, then as a university teaching assistant, and from 2022 as an assistant professor at the Department of Pathology of the University of Veterinary Medicine, where I have been actively involved in diagnostic work and education from the beginning , and in research. From 2014, in addition to pathology, I also gained clinical experience: first I participated in outpatient and intensive care for 2 years at the Department and Clinic of the University of Veterinary Medicine, then from 2016 I provided outpatient care for exotic animals at the Budatetény Veterinary Hospital until 2018. Currently, I give pathology, plenary and histopathology exercises as well as lectures in Hungarian and English for third- and fourth-year students. In the department, I am also responsible for performing and evaluating the necropsy part of animal experiments, as well as administrative activities related to education (website, Moodle, student contact).

Main research areas:

• Development of diagnostic procedures for the presence of feline retroviruses (FIV, FeLV), with a strong emphasis on molecular biology and in situ hybridization test methods
• Pathological examination of feline infectious diseases, with special regard to histopathological and molecular biological procedures
• Detection of feline viral diseases on Hungarian samples, prevalence studies (leukemia virus, immunodeficiency virus, hepadnavirus, morbillivirus, alpha and gamma herpesvirus)
• Pathological and molecular biological investigation of COVID-19 in domestic and wild felines
