Biography

My name is Begna Bulcha Guta from Ethiopia. I was born in Oromia region of East Wallaga zone, Leka Dulecha District on June 15, 1993. With a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM) background, an instructor and researcher at one of East African Universities, Wallaga University. I did my DVM and Master’s degree in Addis Ababa University and Jimma University respectively and graduated with very great distinction at both study levels. With a deep passion and motivation, I completed my DVM study with award with an outstanding performance. My experience from DVM thesis work, in which I have collected blood samples from different dairy farms, and did serological and molecular tests, has strengthened my knowledge and skill on host-pathogen interaction. I did my Master’s degree in Veterinary Epidemiology, in which my thesis was on one of the most important dairy animal viral diseases – Bovine Viral Diarrhea virus (BVDV), and Infectious Bovine Rhinotracheitis (IBR) Virus on serological investigation and risk factors for occurrence of these infectious agent among dairy cattle in Ethiopia. My main research interests are on studying Pesti-viruses of cattle up to their molecular level (their pathogenesis, virulence factors and other unique structures which will aid us in their quick detection and identification for better control and prevention designing up to vaccine development) using robust and rapid molecular-based detection technique. Currently, I am teaching/lecturing/ at Wallaga Univer
