Ep 118: OA’s impact on pets’ lives, with Sophie Platt and Sarah Cooper

They have jointly authored the article “OA: the impact on pets’ lives” for Vet Times (Volume 54, Issue 32, Pages 5-10), which can be found online at https://www.vettimes.co.uk/article/oa-the-impact-on-pets-lives/ ••• 𝗦𝗢𝗣𝗛𝗜𝗘 𝗣𝗟𝗔𝗧𝗧 𝗕𝗩𝗦𝗰, 𝗠𝗥𝗖𝗩𝗦 Sophie graduated from the University of Bristol in 2012, after first completing a BSc in Animal Science from the University of Nottingham.
