Bio/Research
Dr. Karrow’s research interests focus on the genetic and epigenetic regulation of livestock neuroendocrine-immune systems and how this relates to inflammatory disease susceptibility. The genetic focus is on identifying and validating genetic markers associated with ruminant stress responsiveness and resistance to mastitis and Johne’s disease. The epigenetic focus is on identifying food components such as omega-3 fatty acids, probiotics and fungal mycotoxins that affect neuroendocrine and immune development.
