About Jane Williams

Professional qualities: I am an experienced manager, academic and researcher, whose career has a practical foundation in the veterinary and equine industries. As a committed and motivated individual I have the drive and dedication to achieve. I possess strong professional integrity combined with a meticulous work ethic, and take great pride in enabling myself, and my team, to meet targets and to positively develop the organisations I have been involved with. Research: My philosophy is to apply scientific research to explain, underpin and hopefully improve equine performance and training methods to promote health, success and career longevity in the competition horse. Having achieved my doctorate investigating EMG use in the horse, I am currently researching how EMG can be used to assess muscle adaptation during training and rehabilitation regimes, the use of heart rate monitors in training and competition and rider personality. I am generally interested in all facets of equine performance and using epidemiology as a tool to reduce risks in all equestrian disciplines. Qualifications: DPhil: Evaluation of Surface Electromyography as a valid tool within equine performance analysis MSc Equine Science PG Certificate in Higher Education Certificate in Education RCVS Veterinary Nursing Certificate
