Dr Matthew Perrott BVSc, PhD

Senior Lecturer in Histopathology

Doctoral Supervisor
School of Veterinary Science

Matthew Perrott. 

Senior Lecturer in Histopathology. Massey University. BVSc, PhD. FHEA.

Adjunct Senior Researcher; University of Tasmania.

My sustaining research interest/s are the pathogenesis of infectious disease and population responses. My earlier research career investigated infectious agents in wildlife. More recently the focus has included intensively managed production populations (poultry / aquaculture) and diseases related to recent domestication and husbandry (eg, skeletal deformity in salmon). The extent and breadth of research activity up to my present employment is outlined below. Further clinical experience with domestic species (ruminants and companion animals), avian and exotics was gained in Australia, New Zealand, Portugal, Saudi Arabia and the UK (1986-2007).   

  • NZ: Viruses of possums;  PhD. (1995-99)
  • USA: Sheep Retrovirus Laboratory; Post Doc. Colorado State University.  (2000)
  • UK: FMD epidemic; Temporary Veterinary Inspector / Trainer. DEFRA. (2001)
  • USA: Chronic wasting disease of deer and elk; Research Associate CSU. (2001–06)
  • AUST: Infectious and husbandry diseases of poultry; Melbourne. (2007-08)
  • NZ: Diagnostic and research service – Histology / Histotechnology (2008 ongoing)

The technology expertise (histotechnology and immunohistochemistry) has allowed for a diversity of collaborations to evolve, all of which help to construct and maintain technical expertise and some of which have boosted my academic profile. I am very grateful to my fellow active researchers and external research partners who have shared this collegial and collaborative journey.

One current research niche is a continuation of early beginnings, now that wobbly possum disease virus has been identified in Australia and following renewed interest in this pathogen. Continuations also actively feature in the aquaculture space which New Zealand is committed to growing. A research collaboration with the University of Tasmania is on an official Adjunct appointment footing with a New Zealand based PhD student  and project looking at pin bone extraction problems in salmon processing. This project is strongly aligned to my growing expertise in fish skeletal deformity.

I am enthusiastic about a new international collaborative direction with academics in Sri Lanka. This project combines my interest in aquaculture and infectious disease. The task is to characterise and mitigate the effects of koi sleepy disease, a poxvirus infection of carp species which places small holding farmers in a precarious situation supplying the international aquaria trade.   

The newest of my academic interests is venturing into the field of veterinary education itself. Currently the School of Veterinary Science is engaged in a substantial curriculum review. My contribution is to champion sustainability in this new roll out, to ensure that the next generation of veterinary graduates are exposed to contemporary and compelling issues and that the academic integrity and social license of the profession is maintained.  In this context and related to the United Nations sustainable development goals,  I am very lucky to have an opportunity to support a small project in Sri Lanka. I hope to continue this research collaboration, established via education linkage, and provide some guidance and funding to this re-emerging economy.  The project is applied sustainable veterinary medicine directly impacting no poverty / zero hunger for Sri Lanka farmers.

I am a broadly experienced veterinary scientist and active academic at the Turitea campus, Palmerston North. My research expertise / background is infectious disease and histopathology. Until recently I taught histotechnology to undergraduates, pathology residents and managed our diagnostic laboratory. Currently I run the histology research laboratory, specialising in immunohistochemistry, and offering a range of slide-based technologies. Beyond histology, my teaching to veterinary students ranges from cardiovascular and renal physiology to less mainstream companion species (rabbits, rats, guinea pigs), including an applied special topic (laboratory animal medicine and surgery). I am proactive in curriculum development with an interest in sustainability.
