Guido Bosch

Dr. Guido Bosch is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Animal Sciences at Wageningen University & Research, Netherlands. His research focuses on feed evaluation in pets, zoo, and production animals, particularly investigating how food properties influence appetite and intake behavior. Key areas include fermentable fibers, Maillard reaction products in pet foods, and the nutritional potential of insects as protein sources. He holds a PhD in canine nutrition and has strong interests in evolutionary feeding ecology and animal physiology.

Education: PhD in Animal Nutrition (focus on canine behavior and nutrition). Affiliations: Animal Nutrition Group at Wageningen University, collaborating with institutions like Protix and Petgood AB on insect-based feed studies. Expertise spans animal health, food technology, and in vitro digestibility analysis.

Research highlights include studies on black soldier fly larvae (BSFL) meal in cat diets, pellet manufacturing optimization, and bioconversion of organic waste via insect larvae. His work bridges nutritional science with sustainable agriculture, emphasizing circular economy solutions.
