We are delighted to share our latest podcast episode “On the Field with the Cows” with Dr. Nicolas Negrin Pereira. A native of Uruguay, a veterinarian, and member of our Department of Biology, Dr. Negrin Pereira teaches various courses in Animal Science, Animal Nutrition, Zoology, and Physiology of Reproduction.

This episode showcases his work with bovine reproductive health, and we learn about his work with students, in the field and in the lab, and the benefits of teaching animal husbandry to the next generation. Dr. Negrin Pereira discusses his beneficial collaborations between UNC Pembroke, UNC Chapel Hill, and NC State University, and shares the story of his fascination with animal reproductive health which began for him as a student. The conversation reminds all of us that UNCP’s proud history of animal science continues in good hands with Dr. Negrin Pereira and his students.
