Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Katie Hilton's research focuses on broiler chicken physiology, nutrition, and meat quality. Her work investigates the impact of dietary protein and energy levels on muscle protein turnover and body composition in different broiler lines and housing environments. Hilton also studies the relationship between fasting heat production and body composition in broilers, as well as the energy requirements of modern broilers fed exogenous enzymes. Her recent publications include reviews on sustainable broiler production and studies on age-dependent gene expression and triglyceride kinetics in broilers with woody breast myopathy. Additionally, she has published on the use of dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry for determining processing weights in chickens, including the development and validation of prediction models. Hilton has a h-index of 12 and has authored 27 publications with 416 citations. She frequently collaborates with researchers at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, including Jordan Weil, N. Suesuttajit, Cole Umberson, and A. Beitia.
