About

David Williams is a Professor in the Department of Veterinary Clinical Medicine at the University of Illinois College of Veterinary Medicine. He earned his veterinary degree (VetMB) from the University of Cambridge and his PhD from the University of Liverpool, where he first developed the canine TLI assay. His research has focused on the development and application of new tests for gastrointestinal diseases, particularly those affecting the pancreas, small intestine, stomach, and liver of dogs and cats. He founded the 'GI Lab' in 1985 at the University of Florida, introducing assay of serum trypsin-like immunoreactivity (TLI) in the dog to the United States. Throughout his career, he has established several novel tests for gastrointestinal diseases, including feline serum TLI, canine and feline serum PLI, fecal alpha 1-proteinase inhibitor, unconjugated serum bile acids, canine TSH, and serum cobalamin and folate assays for dogs and cats. Williams has held faculty positions at multiple institutions, including the University of Florida, Kansas State University, Purdue University, Texas A&M University, and the University of Illinois. He continues to work as a consultant with the GI Lab, providing telephone consultations regarding the management of patients diagnosed using their services.
