Yazavinder Singh is a Post Doctoral Researcher at the University of Padova, Italy.

First Scientific Papers

edit

In 2019, Singh's first paper "Black Soldier Fly (Hermetia illucens) as Dietary Source for Laying Quails: Live Performance, and Egg Physico- Chemical Quality, Sensory Profile and Storage Stability"[1] was published in the Animals journal MDPI. His PhD thesis was accepted in December 2021, and he was awarded a PhD in Animal and Food Science in March 2022.

Travel Abroad

edit

Dr. Singh spent 3 months (May-July 2019) in Thailand at the Department of Physiology, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Kasetsart University (KU), Bangkok to carry out research activity on the effect of different slaughtering and processing methods on Acheta domesticus [2].
