As lab animal veterinarians, one of our most important duties is to ensure that our patients receive the best management and with minimal pain and distress while they are under our care. I am interested in pain assessment, better analgesic intervention, and enrichment in research animals, particularly rodents and aquatics.

My clinical responsibilities include providing/overseeing veterinary care for research animals of many species to include rodents, pigs, sheep, dogs, fish, and frogs across the University of Pennsylvania campus. I also participate in the training of veterinary students and veterinary residents who want to specialize in laboratory animal medicine.
