Intestinal Health in Poultry

Introduction

Dr. Doug Korver received a Ph. D. in nutrition from the University of California, Davis, and joined the University of Alberta in 1997. In addition to practical research on feedstuff quality and dietary supplement evaluation in poultry diets, Doug’s work focuses on nutrition-immune function interactions and bone biology in meat- and egg-type poultry. In 2016, he spent a 6- month sabbatical in Colombia, working with a major broiler integrator. In 2023, he began a phased retirement from the University of Alberta after 26 years, and formed Alpine Poultry Nutrition, Inc. His vision is to communicate the science of poultry nutrition to end users in the poultry industry while maintaining his University research program.
