Cate currently works as a Knowledge Exchange Fellow for Farming Connect, developing eLearning modules on a variety of agricultural topics; her area of expertise is livestock science.
Cate has previously worked at the Centre of Excellence for Bovine TB on the molecular genetics and epidemiology of Mycobacterium bovis. Prior to this, she worked as a lecturer for IBERS-DL and as a Knowledge exchange fellow.
Cate received her PhD in 2019 which investigated the role of the protozoa in ruminal metabolism, focussing on carbohydrate-active enzymes. This project used meta-omic techniques alongside molecular and microbiology to deliver some of the first in-depth bioinformatic characterisation of the rumen protozoa.
In 2014, Cate achieved an MPhil examining the role of bacteria in ruminal lipid metabolism and in 2013 received her BSc Biology (hons) from Aberystwyth University.
Cate qualified as a Fellow with the Higher Education Academy by completing her PGCTHE in 2019.
