History of Poultry: Part 1 - Past, Present, and Publish

In this episode of Unplucked, we sit down with Dr. Paul Siegel—former Editor-in-Chief of Poultry Science (2002–2004) and a legend in the field of poultry genetics—for a deep dive into the evolution of PSA’s flagship journal.

 

From his early days at Virginia Tech in the 1950s to the digital transformation of publishing, Dr. Siegel shares insights on how the journal has shaped poultry research and why it remains central to the industry today. It’s part history lesson, part publishing primer, and all about the power of science in print.

 

This is the first of three historical episodes, so stay tuned for our next episode, which is in episode eight!
