Stephanie Catherine Jane Sharping serves as a Clinical Associate Professor in Veterinary Clinical Medicine at the University of Illinois with dual affiliation at the Veterinary Teaching Hospital, focusing on advancing anesthesia protocols and critical care for companion animals.

Her research spans:

• Veterinary Anesthesiology: Investigating drug interactions (dexmedetomidine, midazolam) and cardiopulmonary effects in feline patients
• Cardiology: Developing sedation protocols for cats with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
• Dentistry: Evaluating novel interventions for canine oral health and halitosis
• Nutritional Immunology: Assessing black soldier fly larvae impacts on feline immune function and skin health

Recent publications (2024-2025) reveal a translational research trajectory targeting practical clinical applications. She systematically examines anesthetic agent safety profiles, develops non-invasive oral care solutions for dogs, and explores sustainable nutritional supplements for cats, with significant Plum Analytics engagement including 179 reader captures for her oncology chapter and multiple news mentions for dental health studies.
