POSITIONS | mycv

Researcher, INRAE Rennes, France

Since 2017

- Research topic : feed efficiency and precision feeding for sows and dairy cows. I'm analysing individual requirements variability, improving nutritonnal models, running experiments to collect individual data, proposing innovative feeding strategies. Improving novel technologies used in precision feeding is also part of my work: development of softwares analysing automatically the behavior (physical activity) of gestating sows from video recordings, learning strategies for a better use of the automatic feeders.

- Supervizing : Bachelor, Master and PhD students, plus giving few lectures at Engineer schools of Agronomy (Rennes, Dijon, Bordeaux)

PostDoc, Aarhus University, Denmark

2017

I worked on two different projects:

- the use of seaweeds in dairy cows diets, and more specifically to determine the differences of amino acids concentrations and degradability values between seaweeds (Altpro project)

- the use of milk metabolites and enzymes to identify potential risk cows (GplusE project)

Research Assistant, Aarhus University, Denmark

2016 - 2017

During this year as a research assistant I joined different projects in which I mainly analyzed data and wrote papers. As a result I learnt about many new topics of animal sciences:

- the effects of feeding DDGS and glycerol to dairy cows on milk production and intake of dairy cows

- the need of shelter during summer in Denmark for cattle, horses, sheep

- the importance of having welfare criteria to select the sows for transportation to slaughter

I was also in charge of lectures in animal welfare and animal physiology. I participated to conferences to present results of my previous work and sows' results.
