RCVS welcomes 38 new Fellows
Vets are invited to apply for RCVS Fellowship under three different routes, namely: Meritorious Contributions to Clinical Practice: to Knowledge; and to the Profession.
Daniella Dos Santos, Emma Milne and Christianne Glossop are among the successful applicants.

The RCVS has awarded 38 new Fellowships to leading figures from across the veterinary profession, in recognition of their outstanding contributions to the field.

Among the new Fellows include senior BVA vice-president, Dr Daniella Dos Santos, TV vet Dr Emma Milne, and Wales’ chief vet, Dr Christianne Glossop. For the first time in the history of the RCVS Fellowship, more than half of the successful applicants were women.

Professor John Innes, Chair of the Fellowship Board, said: "It was a great pleasure to personally write to all of my wonderful colleagues whose applications for the Fellowship have been successful. They should be very proud that they have successfully made it through our rigorous but fair application process, and how they've contributed to our profession in various different fields of endeavour.

“At the outset of my time as Chair, I said I wanted to broaden the make-up of the Fellowship, particularly in regards to gender as I was acutely aware that the fact we are now a majority-female profession, and that has not been quite reflected by the Fellowship. So, I am delighted that, for the first time, this year we saw a majority of the successful applicants were women and I hope that this trend towards a more diverse range of applicants will continue as we go forward.”

Veterinary professionals are invited to apply for RCVS Fellowship under three different routes, namely: Meritorious Contributions to Clinical Practice: to Knowledge; and to the Profession. 

Other successful applicants for 2021 include wildlife vet Dr Richard Harvey, past RCVS President Amanda Boag, and cattle health specialist Prof. Jonathan Statham. 

The new Fellows will be formally welcomed by Professor Innes during the upcoming RCVS Fellowship Week (30 September -7 October). A full list of the successful applicants can be viewed on the RCVS website.
