The I-29 Moo University Dairy Webinar Series continues Thursday, July 25 from 12 noon to 1 p.m. CDT.
Dr. Molly Lee and Dr. Delaine Quaresma of the Center for Food Security and Public Health (CFSPH) at Iowa State University will describe the guidance and resources available for planning and implementing daily and enhanced biosecurity practices on dairy operations.
Special emphasis will be placed on measures to prevent the introduction and/or spread of two diseases of current concern in the dairy industry – highly pathogenic avian influenza and foot and mouth disease.
Dr. Lee holds a B.S. in animal science from Michigan State University, a DVM from ISU, a master’s in public health from the University of Iowa, and is board certified in Veterinary Preventive Medicine. She practiced rural mixed animal medicine before beginning her current role at the Center for Food Security and Public Health at ISU’s College of Veterinary medicine. Dr. Lee's primary work focuses on veterinary educational capacity building, zoonotic disease prevention, biosecurity, and foreign animal disease preparedness and response. She is passionate about One Health and is actively involved in civic and leadership roles within public health and veterinary medicine in her community at a local, state, and national level.
Dr. Quaresma joined CFSPH in January of 2022. Prior to working at CFSPH, Dr. Quaresma worked as a mixed animal veterinarian in California and Iowa. She possesses a lifetime of experience and knowledge of bovine veterinary and animal health practices from being born and raised on a 3rd generation dairy farm in the Central Valley of California. Dr. Quaresma earned a B.S. degree in Physiological Science from the University of California, Los Angeles in 2014, DVM from the University of California, Davis in 2018, and master’s in public health from the University of Iowa in 2021. Her passion for animal health, education and agriculture led her to pursue a career in public health and she found the perfect fit at CFSPH.
