My clinical and research interests primarily focus on stallion reproduction and assisted reproductive technologies in horses. These include studying stallion sperm physiology during fertilization, utilizing molecular biology techniques to examine sperm function and stallion fertility, validating flow cytometry-based methods for stallion sperm analysis in clinical settings, investigating the effects of semen extender components and storage techniques on the quality of cool-stored and frozenthawed stallion sperm, and diagnosing and managing reproductive conditions in stallions.
