Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Sue M. Neal's research investigates the accessibility and distribution of veterinary care, particularly in underserved areas. Her work employs spatial modeling techniques to identify "veterinary care deserts" and correlates these findings with access to primary medical care. Neal has also examined critical issues within animal sheltering, including research gaps and socioeconomic patterns related to animal acquisition and rehoming. She explores the human-animal bond, even in the context of community cats, and considers the role of policy in veterinary services, including the potential for telemedicine to establish veterinarian-client-patient relationships. Her scholarship also extends to broader themes of social equity and mentoring in public service.
