Course Instructed by Dr. Giovanni Maria Gnemmi DVM, Ph.D., Diplomado ECBHM
Since 1993, Dr. Gnemmi has been working with ultrasonography in cattle, trying to incorporate this method in herd management. Dr. Gnemmi’s fields of interest are reproductive management (ultrasound diagnosis of embryonic death, follicular dynamics, synchronization programs, uterine and ovary ultrasonography, transition management), preventive medicine and continuing education of dairy workers and veterinarians. In these areas of expertise, he has developed an international experience, both as a consultant to large-very large herd managers in Europe, South America, China, Middle East, Africa and as an instructor in more than 280 training courses in the world.
He’s the author of 2 atlases on bovine reproductive ultrasonography (Le Point Veterinaire 2004, MEDCOM 2010 French version, Blackwell 2011 English version). He has numerous publications, many of them in peer-reviewed journals and has presented approximately 300 invited lectures at national-international meetings.
