Our annual Food for Thought Public Lecture Series is entering its 22nd season of bringing timely science topics to the community: our neighbours, alumni, students, staff and faculty! This year’s season honours McGill’s bicentennial, as the speakers explain how new scientific developments in their disciplines are helping us build a better future. Dr. Elsa Vasseur, Associate Professor, Animal Science, McGill University Elsa Vasseur is an Associate Professor in the Department of Animal Science at McGill University.

Her research expertise relates to animal behavior and welfare, and their associations with livestock sustainability farming, in national and international context. Her research has a major industry-focus making use of contacts with industry stakeholders at all levels such as farmers associations, processors, and advisors to lead to the development of new recommendations and novel approaches for knowledge transfer towards Canadian farmers and beyond. Her international interests and experience include an on-going project financed by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (UN-FAO) to understand the performance and adaptation of livestock systems in milk and meat sectors in Senegal in the context of climate change.
