About
Dr. Anastasia Romano is a leading researcher in veterinary epidemiology and precision livestock farming, with a focus on porcine respiratory disease surveillance. Her work bridges animal health, abattoir-based monitoring, and artificial intelligence to improve disease detection at scale. Dr. Romano’s most notable contribution is the development and field validation of an AI-based automated system for scoring pleurisy in slaughtered pigs, as demonstrated in her 2025 field trial. This system, designed to detect lesions caused by *Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae*, offers a practical, high-throughput alternative to manual postmortem inspection, enabling real-time herd health assessment. Her research has direct implications for reducing economic losses and improving animal welfare in the swine industry. With over 3 citations on her landmark paper, Dr. Romano’s work is gaining traction among veterinary scientists and agritech innovators. Her achievements include successful implementation of the AI system in Norwegian abattoirs, marking a significant step toward data-driven, automated disease surveillance in commercial pig production.
