LRIC Mentorship Program
I was one of the mentees in the 2020 LRIC Mentorship Program. The workshops, farms visit, and seminars were very interactive, which helped me to get connected with the livestock industry and learn about recent advances in the industry. We had the opportunity to meet cattle and sheep producers, talk to LRIC partner’s representatives, and connect with researchers across the campus. The LRIC Mentorship Program’s benefits to junior faculties like me are invaluable. The short-term outcome of LRIC Early Career Faculty – Industry Mentorship Program was initiating a new AI-Veterinary research area in my group that is a relatively new field of research with great potential for improvements. https://www.livestockresearch.ca/early_faculty_mentorship_program
