Perceptions of dairy cow handling situations: A comparison of public and industry samples
(Journal of Dairy Science, 2023)
Inappropriate cattle handling poses a reputational threat to the dairy industry. To enhance social sustainability, handling practices must resonate with societal values about animal care. However, it has yet to be determined ...
Effect of different air speeds at cow resting height in freestalls on heat stress responses and resting behavior in lactating cows in Wisconsin
(Journal of Dairy Science, 2023)
Heat abatement (e.g., soakers, fans) effectively reduces the negative physiological and production effects of heat stress, but no previous studies have documented effective interventions for the reduced lying times observed ...
U.S. Food Flows: A Cold Chain Network Analysis of Freight Movements to Inform Local and Regional Food Issues
(2022-09-16)
Logistics in the public interest is an emerging field of study, accelerated by supply chain disruptions as a result of COVID19 and is of increasing interest as climate change destabilizes natural systems and coupled human ...
Determining the requirement for viral DNA amplification in mediating the reorganization of cellular chromatin during the Epstein-Barr virus lytic cycle
(2023)
We have uncovered how Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) induces the reorganization of cellular chromatin
(ROCC), where host chromatin is compacted and marginated within the nucleus. We tested the role of
EBV lytic DNA amplification ...
Visual narrative vs. traditional slideshow for engaging youth in biodiversity education
(2024)
Engaging youth in early and sustained conservation education has important implications for promoting positive attitudes and behaviors in those who will become the future of conservation and management. Towards this goal, ...
The Effect of Alfalfa Perimeter Plantings on Strawberry Pollen Consumption by Syrphidae (Diptera) in Wisconsin
(2023)
Syrphid flies visit flowers to feed on nectar and pollen and provide an important pollination
service in many cropping systems. We previously observed that perimeter plantings of alfalfa
concentrate syrphid populations ...
Transportation Issues Affecting Fresh Food Distribution: A Comparison Study of Rural vs. Urban America.
(2024)
This exploratory study investigates transportation-related food accessibility issues in US rural and urban areas, from the perspective of improving the food supply, with an objective to bring fresh foods closer (i.e., ...
Investigating the Role of SDHB in Cardiac Regeneration
(2023)
Heart failure is the leading cause of death in the United States. The long wait for heart
transplants and the risk of graft rejection has motivated heart regeneration research to advance
heart failure treatment. Importantly, ...
Investigating Fyv6’s role in splicing through RNA sequencing and selective protein depletion
(2023)
Splicing of pre-mRNAs is an essential process for regulation of eukaryotic gene
expression. Splicing is carried out by the spliceosome, a highly dynamic complex. Mutations
within the spliceosome are responsible for various ...
