Education interests

My aspiration is to prepare graduate students to understand the big picture of production animal industry challenges and opportunities. My mission is to offer opportunities and encourage graduate students to develop independent, critical thinking skills, guiding them to focus on the solution and to think of possible ways to positively impact the industry using applied science.
