Apart from his scientific contributions, what has marked Professor Heath's career is his mentorship of veterinary students and young veterinary graduates who have gone on to make outstanding contributions to animal health in Australia and internationally. His passion and commitment to undergraduate and postgraduate veterinary students has led to an impressive body of work in veterinary education that stretches over 30 years and has made a distinguished contribution to veterinary science. He set up the world's first longitudinal study of veterinary students, seeking information on their background, opinions and aspirations in 1985 and 1986.
