What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Internal medicine
- Animal science
- Ecology
Jeffrey Rushen mostly deals with Animal science, Dairy cattle, Lameness, Animal-assisted therapy and Welfare.
His work on Milk production as part of general Animal science research is often related to Lying, thus linking different fields of science.
Jeffrey Rushen interconnects Dairy industry, Preference test, Claw and Straw in the investigation of issues within Dairy cattle.
His Lameness study combines topics in areas such as Veterinary medicine and Gait.
The Animal-assisted therapy study combines topics in areas such as Developmental psychology, HUBzero and Sniffing.
In his study, Communication and Sensory cue is strongly linked to Affect, which falls under the umbrella field of Animal welfare.
His most cited work include:
- Stereotypic Animal Behaviour: Fundamentals and Applications to Welfare (340 citations)
- Invited review: The welfare of dairy cattle--key concepts and the role of science. (237 citations)
- Domestic animals' fear of humans and its effect on their welfare (228 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His primary areas of investigation include Animal science, Veterinary medicine, Dairy cattle, Lameness and Animal-assisted therapy.
His study in Animal science is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Weight gain and Dairy industry.
His research in Weight gain intersects with topics in Milk intake and Starter.
His Body weight research extends to Veterinary medicine, which is thematically connected.
His Lameness research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Gait, Hock and Hoof.
As part of his studies on Animal-assisted therapy, Jeffrey Rushen often connects relevant subjects like HUBzero.
He most often published in these fields:
- Animal science (53.47%)
- Veterinary medicine (24.49%)
- Dairy cattle (24.08%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2012-2021)?
- Animal science (53.47%)
- Veterinary medicine (24.49%)
- Lameness (15.10%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Jeffrey Rushen mainly investigates Animal science, Veterinary medicine, Lameness, Dairy cattle and Herd.
Animal science is closely attributed to Weight gain in his study.
His Veterinary medicine study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Nursing, Animal-assisted therapy and Jumping.
His studies deal with areas such as Hock, Physical therapy and Confidence interval as well as Lameness.
His Dairy cattle study combines topics in areas such as Repeatability, Statistics and Data quality.
The Herd study combines topics in areas such as Dairy farming and Agricultural science.
Between 2012 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Prevalence of lameness and associated risk factors in Canadian Holstein-Friesian cows housed in freestall barns. (116 citations)
- Associations between lying behavior and lameness in Canadian Holstein-Friesian cows housed in freestall barns (57 citations)
- Prevalence of and factors associated with hock, knee, and neck injuries on dairy cows in freestall housing in Canada. (52 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Internal medicine
- Ecology
- Veterinary medicine
Animal science, Veterinary medicine, Lameness, Hock and Dairy cattle are his primary areas of study.
He has included themes like Captive elephants and Animal welfare in his Animal science study.
His studies in Veterinary medicine integrate themes in fields like Nursing, Bout duration and Maternal bond.
Jeffrey Rushen focuses mostly in the field of Hock, narrowing it down to matters related to Knee injuries and, in some cases, Lower body, Condition score and Animal-assisted therapy.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Rectal temperature, Data collection, Chart, Dairy calf and Fat content in addition to Dairy cattle.
His Milking study incorporates themes from Dairy industry and Agricultural science.
