Peter Hastie

Professor Peter Hastie is an Affiliate Researcher at the School of Biodiversity, One Health & Veterinary Medicine, University of Glasgow, focusing on animal nutrition and digestive health. His research spans equine science, gut microbiota dynamics, and feed evaluation methodologies.

Research interests center on dietary impacts on animal physiology, including:

• Equine gut microbiome responses to dietary changes and supplements
• In vitro digestion models for feed evaluation
• Poultry nutrition and immune function
• Ruminant metabolic studies

Recent publications (2019-2021) demonstrate strong focus on microbial ecology in equine/poultry systems, feed supplement efficacy, and carbohydrate metabolism. Work shows consistent use of molecular techniques and in vitro models to assess dietary interventions.

Awards and advising activities are not detailed in available sources. Laboratory work involves microbiome analysis and feed evaluation at the Graham Kerr Building facilities.
