Hobgoblins Stud and Hobgoblins Equine Reproduction Centre is under the direction of resident Veterinary Surgeon Dr Madeleine Campbell, who is recognised by the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons and by the European College as a Specialist in Veterinary Reproduction (Equine). She is a Diplomate of the European College of Animal Reproduction (Equine) and holds a PhD in Equine Reproduction. Dr Campbell has been working in the field of equine reproduction since 1996, and has a particular interest in stallion semen collections, processing and freezing,  “problem” mares, and in embryo transfer.

 

As the only Veterinary Surgeon in the UK to be recognised as a Specialist in Equine Reproduction by both the RCVS and the European College of Animal Reproduction, Dr Campbell is in demand as a teacher as well as a clinician. Dr Campbell lectures to undergraduate veterinary students as well as veterinary surgeons in Practice who wish to improve their knowledge of equine reproduction (post-graduate CPD). Dr Campbell is also the author of research, review articles and a contributing author to a text book on equine reproduction, and a frequent lecturer at international and national conferences. Some of these articles can be found on this website. As with all specialists, Dr Campbell’s clinical work is underwritten by research. Dr Campbell has recently been awarded a Wellcome Trust Clinical Research Fellowship to investigate the ethics of assisted reproductive techniques in non-human mammals. Dr Campbell is the first Vet ever to be awarded such a fellowship.

In addition to her clinical and research work, Dr Campbell contributes to the wider equine veterinary community.  She is an elected member of the British Veterinary Association’s Ethics and Welfare Committee; member of two RCVS working groups; a Past-President of the British Equine Veterinary Association (BEVA), past Chair of BEVA’s Artificial Insemination Committee; past member of the Horse Race Betting Levy  Board’s sub-committee on equine venereal diseases; an examiner for the RCVS Diploma in Equine Reproduction and a validator for the European School of Veterinary Postgraduate studies.
