    Dr. Amanda Reiter is a Postdoctoral Research Scholar in Dr. Jessica Leatherwood\u2019s lab and Adjunct Faculty at Tarleton State University. Reiter grew up in northern Minnesota, developing a love for animals and the outdoors. She attended the University of Minnesota after graduation as a first-generation student but dropped out after her freshman year. After six years, she returned to the University of Minnesota to complete her undergraduate studies in animal nutrition with an equine emphasis, sparking her interest in agricultural research. She received a Master of Science from the University of Minnesota and a PhD from the University of Connecticut, both with a focus on animal nutrition and muscle biology. Dr. Reiter\u2019s specific research interests include the intersections of animal nutrition, muscle biology, oxidative stress, and inflammation in both production and performance animals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
