Amelia Sidwell

Amelia grew up on a dairy farm in Derbyshire, where her interest in antimicrobial use (AMU) and stewardship first developed. She graduated cum laude from the University of Veterinary Medicine, Budapest in 2016, and began her career in mixed practice, later focused on equine dentistry and maxillofacial surgery, completing specialist training in this field through an EVDC residency. During this time, she led antimicrobial stewardship initiatives, published on AMU in equine dentistry, and presented internationally on the subject. Following the defence of her Master’s thesis on pain behaviour in equids, she now works as Veterinary Development Manager for Arwain DGC, where she is conducting research to support AMU decision-making in farm animal practice. She continues to undertake clinical work in both small animal emergency and critical care and the equine sector alongside her role. Outside of work, Amelia enjoys trail running the Black Mountains and Brecon Beacons, cycling, and CrossFit.
