I am a dedicated and results-driven Ph.D. candidate in animal science, specializing in the intricate field of nursery pig nutrition with a primary focus on optimizing intestinal health. My research endeavors revolve around the multifaceted impact of processed soybean meal and mycotoxin mitigation products on the gut health and growth potential of nursery pigs.In this niche area of study, my contributions have been instrumental in shedding light on the effects of feed ingridents and feed additives on intestinal health, particularly processed soybean meal, and mycotoxins in swine feed. My work has led to a series of peer-reviewed journal publications, underscoring my commitment to advancing our understanding of how these factors influence the intestinal health of nursery pigs.
