New Experiments

Diego Rodriguez started a new experiment at the calorimeter unit about "Effects of fasting time on heat production of group-housed pigs".

Personnel changes

Dr. Maryanne Oliveira finished her post doctoral fellowship with us and now she is looking for an opportunity to work in the industry. We wish Maryanne all the best in your new horizons. Camilo Ruiz finish his visiting scholar and became a master student since spring 2023.
