The award will be presented on Tuesday, June 24, 2025, during the awards ceremony at the ADSA Annual Meeting in Louisville, Kentucky.

The ADSA Foundation Graduate Student Literature Review Award: Production Division (MS) was created to recognize graduate students who have composed in-depth and extensive literature reviews in their thesis or dissertation and allow for these papers to be published in the Journal of Dairy Science® as review papers, making them available as references for citations in original research papers.

The article must be no more than 30 double-spaced pages, including references and graphs, have no more than 75 references, and be focused on a topic in dairy science.

Hannah Carlson attended Michigan State University (MSU), obtaining a BS in animal science and an MS in comparative medicine and integrative biology. In the Abuelo Laboratory, her research focused on dairy calf nutritional immunology. Carlson led a dairy calf field trial supplementing parental micronutrients and measuring vaccine response and health outcomes. At the end of her MS, Carlson had coauthored two research articles and a literature review, which were published in the Journal of Dairy Science and JDS Communications. She has since returned to MSU to pursue her DVM. Carlson’s career goals include mixed-animal practice, focusing on food-animal neonatal care.

It is with great pleasure that ADSA and the ADSA Foundation present Hannah Carlson with the 2025 ADSA Foundation Graduate Student Literature Review Award: Production Division (MS).
