Last week Rotterdam hosted the #Eurovision Song Contest! What research will you present at #WCGALP2022 that is worth “douze points"?

Our review on genomic selection for crossbred performance is out! Most important conclusions? Information on the purebred-crossbred correlation is key, and genotyping crossbreds that are phenotyped is a good idea. NWO-domein TTW (inactief) Breed4Food #wur_abg academic.oup.com/jas/article/99…

Abstract submission for #WCGALP2022 is open!

Wim Daniëls

[Drumroll 🥁] Last but certainly not least, keynote speaker number five: dr. Mario Calus (Mario Calus)! Dr. Calus is an Associate Professor at Wageningen U&R, and a leading expert on genomic prediction (bit.ly/2ZUAAMK). Join us at #WCGALP2022 if you don’t want to miss his talk!

On March 16, the @Alliantie_ewuu will start with the 'Dutch Dairy Student Challenge (DDSC)', a challenge based course for students that want to contribute to the dairy industry of tomorrow! Click the link and watch the video for more information. ewuu.nl/en/education/c…

A very impressive talk by Pascal Duenk giving us robust methods to predict Rpc using only purebred genotypes & phenotypes! 🔮🧙‍♂️👏 WUR Livestock Breed4Food

Today the course Animal Breeding and Genetics (ABG20306) kicked off with the first lecture in the Aurora building by Pascal Duenk. WUR Animal Sciences #wur_abg

Our latest article shows that you can predict the impact of genotype by genotype interactions on the purebred-crossbred genetic correlation, without using crossbred data. Check it out here: rdcu.be/c3pbc #wur_abg NWO-domein TTW (inactief) Breed4Food

New blogpost! How to write a thesis #abstract. thesis-lab.com/how-to-write-a…

My J-factor paper was published in GSE! A big thanks to Mario Calus, Vandenplas Jérémie, Pascal Duenk #wur_abg Validation with single-step SNPBLUP shows that evaluations can continue using a single mean of genotyped individuals, even with multiple breeds. doi.org/10.1186/s12711…

#wur_abg strategic day with all of us. Topics of 100 PhD thesis over the past 7 years. Nice divers contribution to many relevant topics!

For teaching purposes, I have created two R Shiny apps to replace Excel Tools: 1) Estimating breeding values using BLUP, 2) Single trait selection index. I really enjoyed making these apps. Let me know what you think! #wur_abg thesis-lab.com/online-tool-fo… thesis-lab.com/selection-inde…

The Animal Breeding and Genetics course of Wageningen U&R will start next week. 📖 I created a new tool for this course: Multi-trait Selection Index. If you have any cool ideas or suggestions, let me know!💡 #wur_abg thesis-lab.com/breeding-tools…
