Ishak Sarah

Sarah Ishak obtained her veterinary medicine degree at the Lebanese University in Beirut. She joined Oniris in 2021 as a hospital assistant at the veterinary teaching hospital of farm animals. On October 1st she started a PhD thesis under the direction of Oniris supervised by Raphaël Guatteo, Anne Relun and in partnership with Idele (Institut de l'Elevage). Her thesis, entitled " Lameness in young bulls: epidemiological features and zootechnical impact", will let us know to what extent bulls have podal lesions, of what nature these lesions are and to estimate the economic losses caused by these lesions.Very few studies already exist in relation to lameness affecting bulls, hence the need to have basic knowledge of this subject that can be used in future projects.
