I'm Gonzalo Ferreira
I am an assistant professor in the
Department of Dairy Science
I'm originally from Argentina and I work
in the area of Dairy Management my name
is Daniel Houma I am a senior research
associate at the material science and
engineering department I currently work
under dr. Gary pickerel I found out
about this stuff in Japan when I was
starting here at Virginia Tech with many
of the orientations I found it on the
website and I'm very thankful that I did
because it helped it helped us out a lot
it allowed us not only to publish it but
to publish it on form that everybody can
view I thought it was a pretty neat idea
too to have the open access and be able
to be open to the whole world without
that funding we would struggle to be
able to do an open access because it's a
you know unfunded project there's no
direct funding for that and we believe
it's important to publish that work I
would absolutely recommend this it's an
opportunity for us for new assistant
professors so yes why not I would
recommend it to everybody I already have
so I've already told all the people that
I know that they can use this and I hope
that they take the opportunity it's a
wonderful opportunity thanks for the
opportunity and hopefully there would be
more of this in the future
thank you look I really do appreciate it
I mean I don't know how much I can say
thank you for this a bunch to mention
fund and the libraries too I know it's
not on topic but the BT fiber libraries
are fantastic and they make my job
possible
you
