Dr. Juan Manuel Busso is a Researcher at CONICET (National Scientific and Technical Research Council) working in the National University of Córdoba (Argentina). After beginning his career as a Biologist, he received training in non-invasive techniques (1998) and finished his Ph.D. studies in 2006 (reproductive physiology of chinchilla). To explore stress physiological and behavioral responses, he collaborated with different researchers, studying wild and captive Rhea Americana and Japanese quail individuals. His research focuses on mammalian reactivity to the abiotic and biotic factors of an endemic species of chinchilla, Lesser anteater, Dolichotis patagonum under human care. He is working to improve the tools for monitoring stress responses, specially applying non- or minimally invasive techniques.
