January 8, 2007
The University’s Colonel K.L. Campbell Centre for the Study of Animal Welfare (CSAW) has a new director. Prof. Tina Widowski of the Department of Animal and Poultry Science was named to the position earlier this month.
Founded in 1989 as a unique academic forum, CSAW includes faculty from various disciplines across campus, including animal and poultry science, veterinary medicine, psychology, and philosophy. Overall, the centre’s goal is to improve animal welfare through discussion, research and education.
As director, Widowski will oversee CSAW’s many initiatives, including academic and public forums, educational events and co-ordination of research projects aimed at studying animal welfare problems.
