Présentation

Laurence Bernard (woman, Engineer Biology, MSD, PhD, HDR) is a researcher from INRAE, the French national institute for research in agriculture, nutrition and environment. After her biology studies, Laurence started to work at INRA (from 1987) on ruminant digestion and nutrient absorption. She studied the dynamics of particles and liquids in the reticulo-rumen in sheep and after a post-doctoral position at the Rowett Research Institute (Aberdeen, Scotland), she studied the absorption of amino acids and peptides by the digestive tract in sheep. Her theme has evolved in 1999 from digestion-absorption towards metabolism by developing a thematic centered on mammary lipogenesis in dairy ruminants. All her work aims at a better control by the nutrition of the milk fat composition for human consumption. Currently, Laurence research is focused on the nutritional regulation of milk fat plasticity with objective to develop tools to better control the efficiency of dairy ruminants and the nutritional quality of their milk. Laurence has a long experience of collaborations across Europe and internationally, with other dairy ruminants scientists. She played a key role in several large European projects or networks such as BioCLA, Lipgene,… Laurence published more than 50 scientific articles in peered reviewed journals, supervised numerous students, 4 post-doc and 4 PhD theses.
