Dr. Nicolas Friggens, Project Coordinator for GenTORE, will present a CGIL Seminar on Friday, November 22nd. The seminar will begin at 1:30 PM in room 141 of the Animal Science & Nutrition building.

Dr. Nicolas Friggens received a Ph.D. in Animal Physiology and Nutrition from the University of Edinburgh, with a research focus on how lactating females use body reserves to support lactation. This was followed by a 12-year stint with the Danish National Institute for Agricultural Research, researching health and reproduction of livestock from a modelling perspective, before joining INRA. Currently, he is also the Project Coordinator for GenTORE project.

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 us know if you need further instructions on how to connect to Fuze or view available webinar recordings.
