Rate My Professor Wendy Goodwin

Goodwin's research interests include veterinary anaesthesia and analgesia, anaesthetic safety culture, innovative pain management and total intravenous anaesthesia techniques, critical care, traumatic haemorrhage and injury, translational large animal models for medical research, and the impact of leadership styles on error disclosure and safety climate in veterinary practices. She has led funded projects such as investigations into haemostatic abnormalities from brown snake envenomation (2022–2023, Australian Companion Animal Health Foundation), efficacy studies of injectable sedatives (2019–2020, Innovation Connections), and tissue oxygen saturation in horses (2018–2020, John & Mary Kibble Trust). Key publications feature 'Survey describing the perspectives and practices of Australian veterinarians to pain management in horses' (2026, Australian Veterinary Journal), 'Impact of humble leadership on attitudes to error disclosure: the mediating role of psychological safety and safety climate in Australian veterinary practices' (2025, BMJ Leader), 'A retrospective analysis of clinical features, management and outcomes in dogs and cats with Eastern Brown Snake envenomation (2016–2022)' (2025, Australian Veterinary Journal), 'Feline caudal vena cava to aorta ratio reference interval' (2024, Journal of Feline Medicine and Surgery), and 'Plasma pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of alfaxalone in both premedicated and non-premedicated horses' (2012, Veterinary Anaesthesia and Analgesia). She regularly publishes in peer-reviewed journals and presents at international conferences, contributing to advancements in clinical outcomes and professional wellbeing in veterinary anaesthesia.
