Dr. Bahr uses the laying hen, the only animal that gets ovarian cancer identical to humans, to develop techniques for the early detection of ovarian cancer. She evaluates the dietary influences of anti-inflammatory Indian spices, such as curcumin and ashwagandha, on the incidence and severity of ovarian cancer. She also studies how the elevation of follicle stimulating hormone in postmenopausal women may cause the disease.

Meat Judging Team

The meat judging team is a competitive extracurricular program that tests students’ knowledge on carcass anatomy, industry function, and end product quality. The meat judging program at the University of Illinois has been active since 1929. Being a part of a meat judging team takes dedication, passion, and typically hand warmers. As a member of the meat judging team, you will get a firsthand understanding of how the final product is evaluated, fabricated, and marketed. Team members are exposed to numerous segments of the livestock and meats industry, allowing you to network with leaders in the industry and across other universities.

Students on the team will get to travel across the country for 2 semesters, competing against students from other agriculture universities to determine who the best evaluators are. The team competes at 4 contests in the spring and 4 contests in the fall. Students interested in being on the team need to enroll in ANSC 215 – Section A (Intro to Meat Eval). For any questions, please contact the Advisor below.
