Viktoria Neubauer studied veterinary medicine at the Vetmeduni Vienna with externships in Canada and the United States. From 2015–2017 she did her PhD studies at the Institute for Animal Nutrition in collaboration with the Selberherr lab at the Unit for Food Microbiology (Vetmeduni Vienna), focusing on dairy cow nutrition. Then Viktoria has become a Postdoc in the Austrian Competence Center for Feed and Food Quality, Safety, and Innovation (FFoQSI). Her research interests are udder health, milk quality and milk processing, focusing on cheese, with the aim of linking cow health and production to milk quality parameters. As part of this, she is exploring the udder, milk, dairy environment, and cheese microbiome and analyzing it in a one-health context.
