Abacus Bio-Caeli

Caeli Richardson

Year 2 Champion Land Productivity

Caeli discovered her passion for agriculture while working on a dairy farm in Canada. She broadened her practical experience on a local swine and cash- crop operation before gaining a global perspective of on-farm challenges. Incorporating practical experience into her theoretical training allows Caeli to create innovative solutions to multifaceted problems. Before joining AbacusBio, Caeli completed a Ph.D. in Computational Biology at La Trobe University in Australia, focusing on the development and implementation of genetic strategies to reduce methane emissions in Australian dairy cattle. Caeli is a proud participant of the 2023 ICAR Brian Wickham Young Persons Exchange Program where she investigated the implementation and validation of sustainability in cattle.
