I am a postdoctoral fellow advised by Dr. Grégoy Bédécarrats https://animalbiosciences.uoguelph.ca/abscpeople/gbedecar.
My research focuses on laying hen welfare, with a special interest in keel bone development and pullet behaviour.
I received my PhD from the Department of Animal Bioscience at the University of Guelph in Poultry Welfare Science under the supervision of Dr. Tina Widowski (http://animalbiosciences.uoguelph.ca/abscpeople/twidowsk). I grew up in Switzerland, where I obtained my bachelor’s and master’s degrees in biology, with special qualifications in animal behaviour.
My interests revolve around fear behaviour, behavioural development, and individual variation, as well as how these traits relate to animal welfare.
