From Clinics to Conservation: Vet Medicine in Extreme Environments

In this episode of the World Extreme Medicine Podcast, host Eoin Walker speaks with Corinne Palma, a recently graduated veterinarian from University College Dublin and Vice President of the International Veterinary Students’ Association.

Together, they explore how veterinary medicine extends far beyond the clinic — from field anaesthesia innovations and drone-assisted wildlife monitoring to the ethical challenges of intervention and the growing importance of One Health.

Corinne shares insights from her experience across small animal clinics, conservation projects, and research labs, and discusses the traits and training needed for the next generation of veterinarians working in extreme environments.
