Dr. Trevor DeVries,

Dr. DeVries was an undergraduate student at the University of British Columbia, where he had the opportunity to participate in dairy cow research. That led to an interest in nutritional management, animal welfare and behavior, which he studied during his graduate program at UBC. Trevor then completed a one-year postdoctoral position with Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada. He began at the University of Guelph’s Kemptville Campus before coming to the University of Guelph's main campus in 2015. He is currently a Canada Research Chair in Dairy Cattle Behaviour and Welfare. In addition to his research, Trevor contributes to teaching undergraduate and graduate courses in the areas of dairy cattle management, behavior and welfare, and coaching the university Dairy Challenge team.
