This project investigates the genetic and epigenetic mechanisms influencing animal welfare, focusing on chickens and dogs. It aims to understand how environmental factors shape stress responses and coping behaviors through epigenetic changes, potentially leading to adaptations over generations.
Animal welfare is a topic of highest societal and scientific priority.
Here, I propose to use genomic and epigenetic tools to provide a new perspective on the biology of animal welfare.
This will reveal mechanisms involved in modulating stress responses.
Groundbreaking aspects include new insights into how environmental conditions shape the orchestration of the genome by means of epigenetic mechanisms, and how this in turn modulates coping patterns of animals.
The flexible epigenome comprises th…
