CGIL Seminar: "Updates on genomic analysis for Composite sheep breeds and temperament score in American Angus cattle"

Dr. Hinayah Rojas de Oliveira, a Post-Doctoral Fellow at Purdue University and CGIL, will present a CGIL Seminar on Friday, October 18th. The seminar will begin at 1:30 PM in room 141 of the Animal Science & Nutrition building.

Hinayah completed her Ph.D. at the Federal University of Vicosa in December last year. During her Ph.D. she was a visiting student at the University of Guelph, working on genomic-enabled predictions and genome-wide association analysis for lactation curves in dairy cattle. Currently, Hinayah is a Postdoctoral Researcher at Purdue University and the University of Guelph. During this presentation, she will present some of the projects that she has been working on, such as across-country genomic predictions in Composite sheep breeds with similar development history and genomic analysis of temperament score in American Angus cattle

The Centre for Genetic Improvement of Livestock welcomes all interested University of Guelph staff, faculty, students, as well as industry and academic collaborators to attend our CGIL Seminars, which are held on Friday afternoons throughout the Fall and Winter semesters. The meetings are always available remotely via Fuze, for those unable to attend in person, and presentation recordings may also be available after the seminar. ​Please let me know if you need further instruction on how to connect to Fuze or view available webinar recordings.
