Graduate Research Assistant
Iowa State University
Hello, my name is Katie Heiderscheit, and I am a third-year PhD student at Iowa State University working with Dr. Stephanie Hansen. My PhD research focuses on using management practices and nutritional strategies to reduce stress and enhance welfare of cattle during the feedlot receiving period. I received my MSc from the University of Edinburgh in Applied Animal Behaviour and Animal Welfare where my research focused on the effects of altering feeder space allowances on finishing beef cattle feeding behavior and aggression.
