OverviewAI-generated summary

Robin A Cheek's research focuses on animal nutrition and health, particularly in beef cattle. Recent publications investigate the effectiveness of various dietary supplements and management strategies to improve growth performance, feed efficiency, and health outcomes in stocker cattle. Specific areas of study include the impact of supplemental trace minerals, plant-based extracts, and probiotics on cattle health. Cheek also examines methods for detecting bovine respiratory disease and the influence of maternal factors on newborn calf health. Collaborations with E.B. Kegley and Jeremy G. Powell have resulted in numerous shared publications in these areas. Cheek has authored 33 publications with 6 citations and an h-index of 1.
