DVM, MS, PhD, Dipl.ACT, Dipl.ECAR (Eq Repro)

American and European Specialist in Animal Reproduction

University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, USA

Dr. Canisso grew up in Brazil working with livestock and horses on the family farm. His family migrated from Italy and Spain to Brazil early in the 19th century, so he has had a heavy influence of those cultures in his upbringing.

After graduating from veterinary school and being in private practice in Brazil, he completed a master’s degree in animal reproductive biotechnology, which earned my reputation as a donkey reproduction specialist. He then moved to the United Kingdom for a fellowship in equine reproduction.

Thereafter, he completed a residency in theriogenology at Cornell University in Ithaca, N.Y. My residency allowed him to become board certified by the American College of Theriogenologists and the European College of Animal Reproduction. Then, he moved to the world’s “Horse Capital” to earn a PhD in equine reproduction at the University of Kentucky, Lexington.

Dr. Canisso has been with the University of Illinois since 2014. He has a special interest in mentoring veterinary students, graduate students, and house officers.

Dr. Canisso travels around the world to speak and to consult on high-end mares and stallions suffering from reproductive problems. Throughout the year, he is a full-time clinician, but also performs classroom and clinical teaching in equine theriogenology. He has three areas of research interest: equine subfertility, perinatology, and reproductive biotechniques.
