Led by Professor Georgios Banos, the group research is focused on the development and application of computational and statistical methods for the analysis of large farm animal data in order to unravel the genetic background of economically important traits, using also biomarkers as predictors of animal health, fitness, longevity, robustness and welfare. We also work in the development of methods to improve the accuracy of genomic evaluations and to optimize breeding strategies to enhance animal productivity and resilience while maintaining genetic diversity. Group members Staff and PhD students Research Our research is focused in the development and improvement of breeding strategies through the use of genomic evaluations and biomarkers in order to improve animal health, fitness, longevity, robustness and welfare.
