For the final pitch before the break of the FameLab Netherlands final 2021, Malou van der Sluis from Wageningen U&R talks about tracking the activity of chickens to monitor their wellbeing. British Council Netherlands #FameLabNL

FameLab Netherlands was a great experience and has taught me a lot about science communication! Congratulations to the jury winner Dr. Alex Cloherty and audience winner Mohammad Jouybar, both great pitches! #FameLabNL

I am happy to share that we have a new paper out on the relationship between gait and activity in broilers: doi.org/10.1016/j.psj.… #wur_abg Breed4Food WUR Livestock Diergeneeskunde Cobb Europe

Thank you very much Rebecca Nordquist @[email protected] 😀 I really enjoyed presenting my work at #ISAE2021 today. A great conference so far, looking forward to the upcoming talks!

Very interesting talk by @MFGiersberg at #WAFL2021 on a “non-trolley problem”: conveyor belt speeds and drop heights in commercial hatcheries

We are proud to introduce Yvette de Haas (Yvette de Haas). Yvette is one of the main organisers of #WCGALP2022 and takes the lead in various aspects of the conference, such as the venue, catering and social programme!

Last Friday I successfully defended my PhD thesis on activity tracking in broilers 🥳 I enjoyed my PhD project and am happy that I will continue to work on this great topic! Thank you @basrodenburg Esther Ellen Yvette de Haas for all your support!

Our next presenter is Malou van der Sluis. She will be speaking on 'Activity tracking in broilers' Tim: 1-2 pm Nigerian time Interested participants can register using the link docs.google.com/forms/u/1/d/14… @basrodenburg Durosaro, Samuel Olutunde ISAE UFAW Seun Rebecca Nordquist @[email protected]

Our paper on early locomotor activity in broilers is now published: doi.org/10.1016/j.psj.… I enjoyed working on this paper in a great online collaboration between Asher Behaviour Lab🏳️‍🌈, WUR Livestock, Breed4Food, Cobb Europe and Diergeneeskunde 🐓
