Dr. Elizabeth Strand | As a result, she created UT’s Veterinary Social Work initiative, now regarded as one of the leading programs of its type in the country. Strand, who has a joint appointment in the College of Social Work and College of Veterinary Medicine, researches human-animal relationships within the family system, and human stress in veterinary and other animal-related environments. “I love bringing the two professions together,” said Strand, a Knoxville native. “I love the new creative ideas that come from that. I love healing people through the power of animals. I love working with veterinarians who are just fabulous human beings.” | | |
