Selected Speaking Engagements
Global Perspectives on Poultry Gut Health & the Microbiome
Invited presentations at international scientific and industry forums addressing the intestinal microbiome, gut health, microbial ecology, and their translation into more resilient and sustainable poultry production.
From Microbiome Science to Commercial Poultry Production
Invited lectures focused on bridging laboratory discovery and commercial poultry production, translating microbiome and gut health research into practical strategies for pathogen control, performance, and flock resilience.
Competitive Exclusion, Probiotics & Salmonella Control
Invited presentations on competitive exclusion and direct-fed microbial strategies for controlling Salmonella and other enteric pathogens, connecting foundational research with practical applications in poultry health and food safety.
Nutrition–Microbiome Interactions & Intestinal Resilience
Invited lectures exploring how diet, feed ingredients, enzymes, organic acids, and other nutritional interventions shape the intestinal microbiome, gut function, immune responses, and biological performance in poultry.
Alternatives to Antibiotics & Sustainable Poultry Health
Invited presentations on science-based alternatives to antibiotics, including probiotics, direct-fed microbials, phytogenic compounds, bacteriophages, and integrated strategies for pathogen control and sustainable poultry production.
Gut Integrity, Inflammation & Environmental Stress
Invited lectures examining intestinal barrier function, inflammation, heat stress, oxidative stress, and their interactions with the microbiome, immunity, and performance in poultry.
