OverviewAI-generated summary

Bernard Abeiku Sam's research focuses on animal nutrition and physiology, particularly concerning the effects of nutritional interventions on livestock performance and health. His work investigates the impact of specific nutrient supplementation, such as 25(OH)D3 and various phytochemicals, on growth performance, blood cell counts, and reproductive outcomes in pigs. Sam has published on longitudinal studies examining nutrient interventions during gilt development and their subsequent effects on progeny growth and sow longevity. His research also explores the potential of phytochemicals as replacements for traditional growth promoters in animal agriculture. Collaborators on his projects include Charles V Maxwell, Hannah G Grogan, Nathan Davis, and Carine M Vier, primarily from the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville and the Arkansas Agricultural Experiment Station.
