Project at Queen's University Belfast - Nutritional programming in replacement dairy heifers: Future-proofing herd performance, health and behaviour
Project background. The lifetime performance of a dairy calf is impacted by its health, nutrition and environment, with a sub optimal position in any of these factors affecting the animal’s ability to achieve its genetic potential. Read more
Interpretation of animal behaviors using novel video processing techniques in Artificial Intelligence
This PhD project will introduce new video processing and analysis tools based on state-of-the-art innovations in Artificial Intelligence (AI). Read more
4-year PhD Studentship: Assessing welfare consequences of feed restrictions in dairy cattle: short-term, long-term and sustainability perspectives
Although freedom from hunger is a key pillar of animal welfare, feed restrictions are common on most farms. For instance, on dairy farms, pre-weaned calves are typically fed less than 50% of ad libitum consumption (4-6L of milk when they would drink up to 16L[1]). Read more
Prevalence, etiology, control and prevention of clinical mastitis and associated antimicrobial use
The School of Veterinary Medicine and Science (SVMS) undertakes research on many key aspects of companion animals and livestock health and production. Read more
4-year PhD Studentship: Multi-camera machine vision of a whole cattle herd for assessing the impact of interventions for environmental sustainability
While dairy farming is receiving increasingly strong competition from plant-based alternatives, it remains an important agricultural option where grass is the most viable crop, such as Bristol’s civic region as well as a large slice of world landmass. Read more
4-year PhD Studentship: The impact of early life programming on resistance to helminths in ruminant livestock
The gut microbiome is integral to the development of a normal immune system (Gensollen et al 2016). Disruption to the microbiome during early life – e.g, via antimicrobials, milk replacer, different diets - has long-lasting impacts on immune function in animals. Read more
