Arthington, John – Identify methods
for quantifying stress in animals and evaluating nutritional management
opportunities for decreasing the detrimental results of stress. Dietary
copper and the acute phase response to inflammatory stress. Management
systems that optimize stressful events such as vaccination, weaning,
and transportation that avoid the nutrient drain associated with prolonged
inflammatory distress.

Badinga, Lokenga – Our
research mission is to investigate and develop an understanding of the
basic cellular and molecular mechanisms by which dietary factors control
digestive and metabolic processes in livestock, and to implement nutritional
strategies which maximize the efficiency of feed utilization and provide
healthy animal products for human consumption.

Bailey, Lynn B. – The
focus of Dr. Bailey's research program are the vitamins folate and vitamin
B12 with an emphasis on estimation of requirements for health maintenance,
and risk reduction for both chronic diseases and birth defects. Controlled
metabolic studies are conducted with human subjects of all ages including
pregnant women and the elderly to assess the adequacy of folate intake
throughout the life cycle. The impact of genetic variants of folate
and vitamin B12 related enzymes on folate and B12 requirements and risk
of disease and birth defects are currently being investigated.
