Lecturer

Beth Bradley, a UVM alumna, builds bridges between science and the marketplace. She helps the food industry develop strategies to advance health and wellness initiatives through public-private partnerships that ultimately benefit consumers. Beth’s research focuses on the relationships between whole-milk dairy consumption and health and disease.
