Isidore Adams is a 2026 graduate of the Royal Dick School of Veterinary Studies in Edinburgh with a specific interest in feline medicine. Their presentation is the culmination of a three-year project investigating whether perceptions and attitudes towards Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV), a disease once thought to be a death sentence, have changed alongside scientific understanding. Its results reveal that veterinary personnel still overestimate FIV's transmissibility and its impact on life expectancy. Isidore currently lives in Edinburgh with their beloved fluffy cat named Maui.
