This month we are excited to feature a series called Exploring Vet Med Intersectionality. This is our veterinary take on the sociological concept of intersectionality, which looks at how various social identities interact and impact an individual's experience. We'll be highlighting the stories of individuals from underrepresented communities working in underserved areas of that med, and how their identities impacted their career paths. Our guest today is Dr. Jean-Yin Tan, DVM, DACVIM, MBA. She is an equine internal medicine specialist and associate professor at the University of Calgary. She has had an incredible career that spans many areas of veterinary medicine. We are so excited to share her experience and perspectives with you.
