Essam Mahmoud Abdelfattah

I am currently a postdoctoral scholar in Dairy Epidemiology Laboratory, University of California, Davis, Veterinary Medicine Training and Research Centre (VMTRC) in Tulare, CA. I am interested in using an epidemiological approach to investigate risk factors, including aspects of housing and management, associated with the health and/or behavior of agriculture animals. My general academic interest is to use the systems modeling and statistical methods for the study of animal health and welfare, using large-scale epidemiological experiments. I am currently leading a large-scale project to understand the association between Antimicrobial treatments at dry-off period and antimicrobial resistance in adult cattle on California dairies.
