OverviewAI-generated summary
Carine M Vier's research focuses on swine nutrition and physiology, with recent work investigating the impact of dietary components on growth performance, bone, and carcass characteristics of pigs. Her studies have examined the effects of calcium to phosphorus ratios, standardized total tract digestible phosphorus to net energy ratios, and energy concentrations on nursery and finishing pig growth. Additionally, Vier has explored the influence of zinc supplementation on gestating sow diets and the subsequent growth of their progeny. Other research areas include the relationship between body condition and reproductive performance in gilts and sows, as well as the identification of risk factors for sow pelvic organ prolapse.
Vier's work also addresses the effects of particle size on pig growth performance and stomach morphology, and the influence of diet forms on nursery pig growth. She has also been involved in environmental monitoring related to porcine epidemic diarrhea virus within swine farms. Her scholarship metrics include an h-index of 7, with 132 total publications and 186 total citations. She has collaborated with researchers from the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, including Nathan Davis, Bernard Abeiku Sam, Charles V Maxwell, and Hannah G Grogan.
