Poultry Responses to Management and Environment.
The goal of this research is to understand poultry behavioral and production responses that can be used to improve farm management practices and optimize the indoor environment. In addition, quantifying and evaluating the environmental footprint of the poultry industry is also our mission.
Precision Poultry Farming.
The goal of this research is to design, develop, and test advanced tools for continuous monitoring of animal-based outcomes to assist farmers with timely decision-making. Vision, audio, and wearable sensors are several examples of technologies being used by our experts.
Transmission of Poultry-Related Pathogens.
Our mission is to understand, quantify, and predict airborne transmission of poultry-related pathogens, as well as provide recommendations on effective mitigation strategies for airborne transmission.
