Lieta Marinelli
Associate professor | Veterinary Physiology and Ethology
Mi sono laureata con lode in Medicina Veterinaria presso l’Università degli Studi di Perugia e successivamente ho svolto un Dottorato di Ricerca in Endocrinologia degli Animali Domestici, presso la Facoltà di Medicina Veterinaria (Università degli Studi di Padova) e il Department of Clinical Sciences of Companion Animals, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine (Utrecht University, NL). Nel novembre 1999 ho preso servizio come ricercatorie universitario presso la Facoltà di Medicina Veterinaria dell’ Università degli Studi di Padova sviluppando la mia attività di ricerca nei seguenti temi: endocrinologia e fisiologia riproduttiva del cane, studio della relazione animale da compagnia – proprietario, benessere di cani impiegati in interventi assistiti. Dal 2011 ricopro il ruolo di Professore Associato e attualmente, mi interesso di aspetti endocrinologici e cognitivi dell’invecchiamento del cane, valutazione di animali coinvolti in attività e terapie assistite e analisi dei meccanismi che modulano l’attenzione e la percezione visiva del cane.
