New poultry lameness expert at AB Vista
AB Vista has announced the addition of Dr Michelle Stewart as a technical services team member. She is focused on the monogastric business at AB Vista, supporting customers in determining how or why leg health issues evolve in the field.
Since joining, the company said Dr Stewart has already furthered the development of monitoring bone development from the hatchery to processing plants and hopes to reduce some causes of lameness that are costly to the industry.
Dr Stewart has worked at the Georgia Poultry Laboratory Network.
She has Bachelor of Science and Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degrees from the University of Georgia. She also recently graduated from the University of Georgia’s Masters of Avian Medicine program.
