[ ] show welcome/weather/guest intro
Dr. von Borstel, University of Guelph, Department of Animal and Poultry Science
Uta grew up and worked on dairy and horse breeding farms in Northern Germany and Iceland before her interest in natural sciences led her to pursue studies in agricultural sciences at the Universities of Guelph and Halle (Germany). She investigated for her B.Sc. (hons.) the effect of handling on semen quality in stallions, and then went on to her M.Sc. Beside her studies, she worked part-time in the Hannoverian Horse BreedingAssociation, in a large animal clinic, on several projects as research assistant, and, of course, with her passion, the training of young riding and racing horses. She also competed at high level vaulting and dressage competitions. Presently, Uta is co-supervised for her Ph.D. byDr. Ian Duncan, Dr. Suzanne Millman and Dr. Linda Keeling from the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences. She investigates the unconscious communication of fear between horses and riders and hopes that her work will help to reduce the number of accidents happening with horses.
