Dr. Jessica Suagee Bedore is an Associate Professor of Practice at the Department of Animal and Poultry Sciences, Virginia Tech, USA. She obtained her MSc in Animal Science from the University of Maryland and a PhD in Animal and Poultry Science from Virginia Tech. She was one of the first to assay plasma for many of the equine inflammatory cytokines and to use molecular techniques such as qPCR and western blotting in equine research. Ultimately, her undergraduate and graduate research resulted in 10 peer-reviewed publications on equine nutrition and inflammation. Since then, her research interests have focused on the relationship between dietary starch and sugar consumption and the activation of inflammation via inflammasomes.
