Dale E. Bauman Lecture

The Faculty of the Department of Animal Science at Cornell University created the Dale E. Bauman Lecture  in 2017 to recognize and honor the remarkable career accomplishments and outstanding contributions of Professor Emeritus Dale E. Bauman to animal biology, food science, and nutritional biochemistry. The initial endowment was funded from gifts of individual faculty members to inaugurate the lecture series, which provides insightful and provocative information for faculty, graduate students and undergraduate students across the Cornell University community. The Bauman Lecture is sponsored by the Department of Animal Science, the Department of Food Science and the Division of Nutritional Sciences.
