OverviewAI-generated summary
Diego Martínez's research focuses on the physiology and nutritional management of broiler chickens, with an emphasis on factors influencing growth, metabolism, and health. His work investigates the relationship between dietary components, such as protein and energy, and their impact on broiler performance and body composition. This includes exploring the metabolic kinetics of adipogenic tissues and the energetic demands of fasting broilers, linking body composition to heat production.
Martínez's research also delves into the complex interactions within the broiler intestinal tract, including neurochemical profiles and the modulation of bacterial physiology, such as *Campylobacter jejuni*, by host-derived compounds like serotonin. He has also examined the genetic and molecular underpinnings of conditions like woody breast myopathy, observing age-dependent gene expression changes in muscle tissue. His publications include systematic reviews and meta-regressions analyzing performance, body composition, and processing yield, as well as studies developing and validating methods for predicting processing weights using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry.
He is a highly cited researcher with an h-index of 23 based on 92 publications. Martínez leads a research group and collaborates with several colleagues at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, including N. Suesuttajit and Cole Umberson, with whom he has co-authored numerous publications.
