Dr. Nora Berghoff

Nora Berghoff graduated from the College of Veterinary Medicine in Hanover (Germany) in 2002, and joined the GI Lab in March of 2003 to pursue her Dr.med.vet. degree.

Nora's Dr.med.vet. program research focused on the establishment of the prevalence of protein-losing enteropathy and further characterization of this disease in Norwegian Lundehunds, a rare dog breed in which gastrointestinal disease is common. After finishing her Dr.med.vet. degree in 2006, Nora enrolled in a PhD program at Texas A&M, working on mast cell involvement in canine inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and cobalamin deficiency in dogs with IBD.

Nora has a special interest in pathology, and would like to pursue further residency training in pathology once she is finished with her PhD.
