Eunjoo Kim

Biography

Dr Eunjoo Kim is a postdoctoral fellow exploring nutritional strategies to improve feed efficiency of poultry. She has a PhD in Poultry Nutrition (University of New England, Australia), and masters and bachelor in Animal Science and Biotechnology (Chungnam National University, South Korea). Her main area of interest is poultry nutrition, particularly carbohydrate-degrading feed enzymes. Her current research focuses on fibre digestion dynamics and in situ functional oligosaccharides production in broiler chickens.  Dr Kim has published over 24 peer-reviewed journal articles in international journals with high-impact factors and over 30 peer-reviewed conference papers.
