Meet Martina Bordini, PhD Student - Improving chicken meat sustainability and quality
Chicken meat is the most widely consumed meat worldwide. Over the past 15 years, the poultry industry has faced the occurrence of meat defects that negatively impact the quality and nutritional value of chicken meat, compromising its overall sustainability.
