Research summary
AI-generated

Colleen Brady's research centers on animal welfare and behavior, with a strong focus on horses, including how people recognize and interpret equine emotional (affective) states and how education and training can improve welfare practices. Related work extends into welfare of laboratory animals, agricultural extension and educator training programs, and cross-cultural comparisons of animal-related education. Much of this research combines welfare science with applied educational tools and assessments aimed at industry professionals, students, and animal caretakers.
