Researcher of the Month, June 2022.

 No spotlight this month? Nah! Editorial Team did not forget this important feature in the organization. Who is next to be celebrated for their meritorious service to FATPARG? This month the spotlight is on our very own from the department of Animal Science and Welfare, Mr Isaac Babatunde Fasipe.

Mr Fasipe is a graduate of Animal Science from Ladoke Akintola University, Ogbomosho. He is a member of the Welfare Team of FATPARG.

As a member of the Welfare Team, I facilitate the procurement of information and execution of assistance to members who have a hard time in their personal life or work. The welfare of the organization`s members ensures the members are active, up and doing with their research work.

Animal Science - Monogastric Nutrition

Number of Research Done in FATPARG: 

Six (Four published articles and two ongoing research)

Brief Description: 

I was opportune to coauthor four articles in a reputable journal with members of the animal science and welfare department. Outstanding titles include "Egg Quality Characteristics: The Effect of Varied Dietary Crude Protein with Constant Amino Acid and The Links Between Hormones and Aggressive Behaviours in Animal." In those research, we looked at the effect of varying crude protein levels while maintaining the amino acid levels explored by the birds and we investigated the relationship between hormones and aggression respectively. Currently, research work is ongoing on two different topics. 

Research Drive:

My healthy obsession with animal science is driven by my passion to solve problems related to animal nutrition and welfare and thereby contribute to society through innovations.

How do you handle a bad day doing research?: 

I normally share the challenge with other members of the team and it will be fixed.

My experience working on a project titled "Appearance Matters: How has the breeding to the kennel club affected the welfare of 'Man`s best friend'"?

Counsel to other Researchers:
