Francine Mezzomo Giotto is the Meat Science assistant professor at NMSU. She holds a joint appointment serving the departments of Animal and Range Science, Family and Consumer Sciences, and Extension Animal Science and Natural Resources. Francine grew up in Brazil and inspired by her father, who worked for a food-processing company, and her mother, who was an agricultural educator, decided to attend Veterinary School. Upon receiving her Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree, she completed a master’s and a Ph.D. in Animal Production. In 2018, Francine moved to the United States to work on her second Ph.D. this time with an emphasis in Meat Industry and Food Safety. Before joining NMSU in June 2023, she taught in Nevada and Louisiana while also engaging in 4-H and FFA meat, poultry, and livestock judging team activities. Dr. Giotto’s research agenda focuses on meat safety with a focus on E. coli and Salmonella-contaminated beef and the conversion and valorization of meat processing waste into value-added products.
