What is she best known for?
The fields of study she is best known for:
- Internal medicine
- Genetics
- Ecology
Patricia Y. Hester mainly investigates Animal science, Osteoporosis, Bone mineral, Bone density and Broiler.
Her Animal science study focuses on Tibial dyschondroplasia in particular.
Her work investigates the relationship between Osteoporosis and topics such as Genetics that intersect with problems in Yolk.
Her studies deal with areas such as Eggshell and Tibia as well as Bone mineral.
Her Tibia study which covers Bone ash that intersects with Endocrinology.
Her Broiler research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Weight gain and Feed conversion ratio.
Her most cited work include:
- Hen welfare in different housing systems (273 citations)
- Bone densitometry as an indicator of percentage tibia ash in broiler chicks fed varying dietary calcium and phosphorus levels. (126 citations)
- Performance, Livability, and Carcass Yield of Slow- and Fast-Growing Chicken Genotypes Fed Low-Nutrient or Standard Diets and Raised Indoors or with Outdoor Access (95 citations)
What are the main themes of her work throughout her whole career to date?
Patricia Y. Hester mostly deals with Animal science, Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Feed conversion ratio and Perch.
Her Broiler study, which is part of a larger body of work in Animal science, is frequently linked to Heat stress, bridging the gap between disciplines.
She has included themes like Meal and Weight gain in her Broiler study.
She works mostly in the field of Internal medicine, limiting it down to topics relating to Tibia and, in certain cases, Humerus, Bone density and Ulna, as a part of the same area of interest.
Her work deals with themes such as Semen and Enzyme, which intersect with Endocrinology.
The various areas that Patricia Y. Hester examines in her Feed conversion ratio study include Thermoregulation and Wattle.

In recent papers she was focusing on the following fields of study:
Patricia Y. Hester focuses on Animal science, Perch, Heat stress, Egg laying and Osteoporosis.
Patricia Y. Hester has researched Animal science in several fields, including Bone mineral, Feed conversion ratio, Mineralization and Anatomy.
As a member of one scientific family, Patricia Y. Hester mostly works in the field of Bone mineral, focusing on Tibia and, on occasion, Bone density, Bone mineral content and Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry.
The Egg laying study combines topics in areas such as Musculoskeletal health and Keel.
Patricia Y. Hester focuses mostly in the field of Osteoporosis, narrowing it down to matters related to Femur and, in some cases, Sternum, Ulna, Humerus and Thigh.
Her Broiler research includes themes of Bone ash, In ovo and Incubation.
Between 2009 and 2020, her most popular works were:
