presentation overview

Mobility loss is a common issue in aging dogs, but due to the interplay of deterioration in many systems it can be difficult to understand the underlying causes and identify therapeutic targets. This talk is tailored to primary veterinarians and uses videos to illustrate gait signatures, and leverages case examples to illustrate management strategies.

Natasha Olby completed her veterinary degree at Cambridge University in the UK in 1991. After a brief period spent in mixed general practice, she returned to Cambridge University to complete a PhD and post-doctoral fellowship in spinal cord injury and a surgical training.

Following completion of her PhD and post-doctoral research, she moved to North Carolina State University to do a neurology and neurosurgery residency and she has stayed on the faculty at NCSU. She is currently a Professor of Neurology/Neurosurgery and holds the Dr. Kady M. Gjessing and Rhanna M. Davidson Distinguished Chair in Gerontology.

She is a past president of the American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine Neurology specialty and has published over 200 scientific papers, as well as more than 35 book chapters. She is co-editor of the BSAVA Manual of Canine and Feline Neurology.

While much of her career has focused on spinal cord injury, she has long had an interest in aging of the nervous system, and she now runs the Canine Neuro-Aging Program and is the Director of the Center for Healthy Aging at NCSU. Her research uses clinical cases to generate translational data and she focuses on training future clinician scientists.
