Kilmer Oliveira Soares

Kilmer Oliveira Soares works at the intersection of animal science, agriculture, and microbiology, with a strong recent focus on gut and skin microbiomes of animals such as honey bees, hellbenders, and lorikeets, and how environment and genetics shape these microbial communities. The work also covers broader agricultural topics like insect pest control, animal nutrition, and agricultural education, often in Brazilian and Latin American contexts. Prospective students would encounter a mix of ecology, animal microbiology, and applied agricultural science projects.

Publication output has fluctuated over the last decade with a notable peak in 2019, a dip around 2020, and a more steady pace of roughly 3-7 papers per year from 2022 onward.
