Dairy scientist advances field of transgenics and knowledge of growth hormones

that Akers has "the best skills and most experience in applying histological techniques to studies on ruminant mammary glands."

Sejrsen also praises Akers' "remarkable ability to collaborate with other scientists," noting that his more than 120 publications have co-authors from different disciplines, universities, countries, and continents. "This is a quality that cannot be underestimated, since the rapid advancements of new techniques makes collaboration a must for a successful scientist."

"Any success that I have had has depended on the excellent students and collaborators that I have had over the years," Akers says. "I have also been very lucky to have had an excellent technican in my lab, Ms. Patricia Boyle, for many years."
