Working with Accredited OPU (Ovum Pick Up) centers, clients can take advantage of Boviteq's innovative reproductive technologies. Our goal is to offer the best options available to our clients that will optimize the reproductive career of their elite animals and manage their herds' genetic advancement.
As the Director, Boviteq Business Development North America, Dr. Shantille Campbell is responsible for veterinary collaboration, client relationships and retention as well as technical inquiries related to OPU/IVF services.
Shantille was raised on a diversified sheep and cattle operation near Tecumseh, Nebraska. Being actively involved in the livestock industry since childhood was extremely influential on her career ambitions of serving the cattle industry and its stakeholders. She earned her B.S. in Animal Science from the University of Nebraska, followed by her M.S. in Biomedical Science at the Animal Reproduction and Biotechnology Lab at Colorado State University. There her research focused on improving cryopreservation techniques for both in vivo- and in vitro- produced bovine embryos.
Dr. Campbell then earned her Ph.D. in Reproductive Physiology from the University of Minnesota while utilizing OPU/IVF technologies and embryo recovery and transfer to study the impacts of nutrition on oocyte quality, uterine function and early embryonic development.
In 2014 she joined Boviteq in the US, helping to launch our services from coast to coast.
