Valeria has a master’s Degree in Precision Livestock Farming (LM-86) at the University of Naples Federico II. Her research focus is the utilization of natural extracts to ameliorate health and wellness in animals in a One Health key.
The objective of the project proposal is to investigate the protective effects of a novel natural extract on the brain-gut-kidney axis during development of kidney diseases. The role of the extracts in reducing renal and brain damages will be evaluated through the changes in physiological parameters, gut microbiota, and protein and gene analysis in the targeted organs. Understanding the role of natural extract would be critical for managing kidney diseases and enhancing the quality of life for human and animal patients.
