Biographical Details
Dave Innes finds ruminants fascinating and particularly enjoys trying to figure out why individual ruminants can have such varying responses to the nutrients they consume. He recently joined the University of New England and is working on projects investigating nutritional strategies aimed at reducing enteric methane production in beef cattle. Previously, David completed a postdoctoral fellowship at the University of Guelph in Canada, where he contributed to an automated, closed-loop precision feeding system for lactating dairy cows. While at Guelph, he also taught undergraduate Dairy Cattle Nutrition and led the development of an open-source Python package and web application implementing the latest Nutrient Requirements of Dairy Cattle model. His PhD research at UQ Gatton explored the metabolic regulation of feed intake in ruminants consuming nutrient-deficient diets. David also completed his Bachelor of Ag Science at Gatton and spent 4 years working on the milking and feed team at their dairy farm.
