The Mammary Gland and the Transition Period
Dr. Laura Hernandez, Dairy Science Department Associate Professor of Lactation Biology, UW-Madison
Dr. Hernandez will discuss the structure of the mammary gland and how it gains function over the course of pregnancy and early lactation. She will also examine how the mammary gland regulates maternal metabolism during lactation, and why this is critical particularly during the transition period. This session will also be accompanied by an interactive mammary dissection by Dr. Hernandez.
