Laurence Cheng

Graduate Student
University of Guelph

Hello! My name is Laurence Cheng and I am currently a masters graduate student at the University of Guelph finishing my degree by the end of summer 2021. My lab based in the animal bioscience department focuses on swine nutrition under Dr. Ming Fan. My project focuses on the charcterization of two novel cellulases for fiber degradation in swine nutrition. After completion of my masters degree, I will continue education as a PhD student within the same lab under Dr. Fan as I will continue my work with the same two cellulases. Outside of academics I enjoy the outdoors canoeing, paddle boarding and camping and sports like volleyball and basketball. In addition, I coach U16 volleyball on my time off as well!
