Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Jossie M. Santamaria's research focuses on the immune responses of poultry, particularly in relation to vaccines and environmental stressors. Her work investigates both local and systemic inflammatory and antibody responses in chickens following various vaccine administrations, including autogenous Salmonella-killed vaccines and commercial bacterin vaccines. Santamaria has also examined the impact of environmental heat stress on broiler chickens' immune capabilities and inflammatory responses to lipopolysaccharide injections. Further research explores the influence of dietary arginine on inflammatory responses and the effectiveness of different vaccine inactivation methods, such as electron beam inactivation for Staphylococcus vaccines.

Her scholarly output includes publications on drought tolerance in cowpeas, but her primary research emphasis lies in avian immunology and disease prevention. Santamaria has published 12 works, accumulating 64 citations, and holds an h-index of 5. She collaborates with researchers at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, including Geetha Kumar‐Phillips, Adnan Alrubaye, Anh Dang Trieu, and Ruvindu Perera.
