معرفی
Amy Petry is an Assistant Professor of Monogastric Nutrition at the University of Missouri, where she leads the Monogastric Nutrition Research Lab within the Division of Animal Sciences. Her research focuses on optimizing energy utilization in swine through innovative nutritional strategies.
- Ph.D., Iowa State University (2020)
Dr. Petry's research integrates four key themes:
- Enhancing fiber utilization and its health benefits
- Exploring diet-physiology interactions at a whole-body level
- Optimizing energy supply during metabolic transitions
- Developing nutritional biomedical pig models
The lab's recent work (2025) demonstrates expertise in:
- Fiber metabolism - Investigating insoluble fiber impacts on gut motility and SCFA production
- Feed formulation - Assessing soybean meal variability and DDGS interactions
- Immune modulation - Prenatal LPS programming and ghrelin effects
- Metabolomics - Muscle metabolome profiling
- Microbiome research - Fiber-microbiome interactions in multiple gut segments
- Nutritional endocrinology - Hormonal regulation of immune responses
Her notable recognition includes the Stahly/Peo Outstanding Swine Nutrition and Young Scholar Award. Dr. Petry has secured over $1M in research funding and published 60+ research outputs. She teaches Principles and Applications of Animal Nutrition (AnSci 3242) and directs lab teams advancing swine nutritional solutions.
