Allison Rodgers (Brodbeck)

Associate Researcher
Cardiovascular Physiology and Surgery Core Facility
University of Wisconsin-Madison

Allison Rodgers completed her BA at Roger Williams University in 2012 in Marine Biology. She then began her career in animal husbandry working with, and training, exotic species including cetaceans and pinnipeds. Her work at the Cardiovascular Research Core Lab facility primarily focuses on providing researchers with non-invasive imaging. Rodgers is also instrumental in project management and logistics, large animal surgery and data analysis/manipulation.
