Today, I had the pleasure of welcoming Dr. Montana Oubre, Technical Services Manager at dsm-firmenich. We explored Dr. Oubre's transition from an aspiring bird enthusiast to a professional poultry veterinarian, discussing key lessons and pivotal "a-ha" moments throughout his journey. We also discussed the critical role of blood biomarkers in poultry health and performance, as well as the emerging influence of artificial intelligence in veterinary science.
"In poultry, plasma carotenoids are key biomarkers for studying coccidiosis, a common veterinary concern. Our research revealed that carotenoid levels significantly decline up to eight days before clinical signs of coccidiosis appear, indicating their importance in monitoring gut health."
