Genevieve M D’Souza Source Confirmed

OverviewAI-generated summary

Dr. Genevieve M. D’Souza is an Assistant Professor at John Brown University whose research encompasses ruminant nutrition, digestive physiology, and the effects of environmental stressors on livestock. Her work integrates animal behavior and welfare studies with a focus on enhancing agricultural and farm safety practices. D’Souza’s investigations into methane production from in vitro fermentation have explored different sampling methodologies. She has also examined the impact of live yeast supplementation on energy partitioning and ruminal fermentation in steers under heat-stress conditions. Her research includes analysis of volatile fatty acid concentrations in the rumen using chromatography and the influence of bromoform dosage on rumen fermentation. Additionally, she has studied the feeding behavior of high-risk steers during backgrounding. Her primary research interests lie in animal nutrition and physiology, particularly as they relate to mitigating environmental stressors and improving livestock welfare.
