When you are interested in animal breeding and want to work with over 100 like-minded colleagues, feel free to get in touch to explore the options for you. wur.nl/en/vacancy/pro…

Proud and excited to have the role of helping and coordinating the many scientists and breeders across the globe who are taking up the challenge of reducing methane output’ wur.nl/en/research-re…

Jaar goed afsluiten. Torenvalkkast vernieuwd. Hopelijk ook dit jaar weer een nest met jonge.

Should be a great meeting for everyone interested in quant gen methods - pooling ideas as applied across species. Vienna in July 👍👍

Yesterday, I had the opportunity to be an opponent in a thesis committee at Wageningen U&R. It was a great discussion and I would like to congratulate Anouk and her supervisors for her well deserved PhD.

Hoe ver kun je gaan met methaan? Hoogleraar Roel Veerkamp (WUR) pleit voor een gerichte fokstrategie om methaanuitstoot te verlagen. Marjolein de Rooij (Vakbond voor Dieren) vraagt zich af: wat betekent dit voor de koe zelf? Waar ligt de grens tussen innovatie en dierethiek? ⚖️
