I obtained my degree in Veterinary Medicine from the Universidad de Chile in 1992 and my doctoral degree in Animal Science from the Queen’s University of Belfast (UK) in 2007. Since 2010, I am a livestock research scientist as the Chilean Institute for Agriculture Research (INIA Remehue) located in Osorno. My main interest is in the study of nutritional strategies to decrease ruminant methane emissions. The aim is to provide quality research in ruminant nutrition to improve the competitiveness of the agricultural industry and reduce its environmental impact.
