Dr. Jambhekar completed a rotating small animal medicine/surgery internship at Louisiana State University (LSU) in June 2013, as well as a small animal internal medicine residency at the University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign in July 2016. During her residency, she conducted research in the field of metabolomics, an emerging field important for disease detection/biomarker development.
