Dear all

It is an immense honor and privilege to announce that Bruce Williams has been unanimously elected to the position of Treasurer of the Davis/Thompson Foundation. 

Bruce has worked tirelessly for many years as the CEO of the Foundation and before as its president.  During this time, he has been the driving force behind providing workshops, seminars and training courses in Veterinary Pathology, both locally and globally, travelling extensively himself and championing other pathologists of all ages, genders and races.  His outstanding leadership and organizational skills have been fundamental in solidifying the Foundation’s reputation as the number one organization promoting the teaching of Veterinary Pathology in the world. Under his direction, the Foundation has gone from strength to strength with each passing year and, in these very difficult times, reminded stronger than ever.

As the realities of COVID hit, Bruce was swift to recognize not only the necessity but also the great potential of online delivery and very quickly figured out the best way to get it done.  We are now able to offer an enormous number of webinars and courses worldwide, and reach a substantially increased audience as a consequence of his efforts.

If you know Bruce at all, you will know that he works unremittingly and is available for the Foundation 24/7.  Pathologists young and old look to him as a model of what hard work, a good heart and a strong vision for the future can achieve.  I am proud to be his friend and colleague and look forward to many years of collaboration to come.

Rest assured that Bruce will be working just as hard and resolutely as your Treasurer, even though he may not be quite as visible as before, and we remain in very good hands.  Congratulations Bruce, we wish you the very best in your new role.  

Kind regards

Paco Uzal
