Dr. Phil Cardoso – Bio TBC
Dr. Claira Seely obtained her PhD from Cornell University under the guidance of Dr. Jessica McArt. Dr. Seely’s graduate studies were centered on the epidemiology of subclinical hypocalcemia in dairy cattle, treatment and prevention of the disease, as well as mechanisms of Calcium homeostasis in the early lactation dairy cow. During her graduate studies, Dr. Seely also incorporated precision technology to assist in the identification of early lactation cows with subclinical disorders. This interest led her to the University of New Hampshire where she joined the faculty as an Assistant Professor of Precision Dairy Management in the department of Agriculture, Nutrition, and Food Systems in December 2023. Research in Dr. Seely’s lab is focused on the integration of dairy cow biology and precision dairy technologies. With a specific emphasis on epidemiological methods, her research aims to deepen our understanding of the biology of the transition cow, with a focus on the intersection of calcium homeostasis and inflammation, while optimizing and validating technologies that will improve dairy cattle health, well-being, and productivity.
