💡Summer Student Spotlight 💡: Alexa Gormley
•
Alexa’s research is focused on investigating nutritional interventions to mitigate the negative effects of weaning stress on intestinal health in nursery pigs. More specifically, she has historically worked with yeast-based postbiotics, and her most recent project (this summer) utilized milk oligosaccharides as a source of prebiotics. 🐷🧫🔬
Alexa is a member of the 2024 Real Pork Scholars cohort and traveled to World Pork Expo as a part of that program. Scholars participated in professional development seminars and media training while at WPX. Alexa is also the ANS Dept Graduate Peer Mentor!
