Audrey F. Duff's research focuses on the gut health and immune systems of poultry, particularly chickens, examining how gut bacteria (the microbiome), diet, and stress affect disease and immune development. Work includes studying necrotic enteritis (a bacterial gut disease in poultry caused by Clostridium perfringens) and exploring vaccine approaches, as well as how early-life stress affects immune and microbial development. This research sits at the intersection of animal nutrition, microbiology, and immunology, with direct relevance to poultry agriculture.
