The department of Animal Biosciences
The department is part of the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine and Animal Science and is responsible for education and research in several basic and applied areas. These areas include anatomy, physiology, biochemistry, pathology, pharmacology, toxicology, genetics, breeding, immunology, bacteriology, virology, parasitology, epizootology, comparative medicine, food safety, bioinformatics and One Health. Our research covers everything from production animals to sports and pet animals, laboratory animals and wild animals. The department's researchers work on the entire scale from molecular mechanisms and microbiology to the structure, function and behaviour of animals, and how these are affected by breeding, physical activity, care, production, stress, environmental factors and diseases. Read more about our activities and infrastructure here.
At the department, an internationally prominent research group works on the locomotor apparatus anatomy and biomechanics, with a focus on horses, but to some extent also ruminants. The group uses both sensor-based technology, image and video analysis and addresses research questions linked to normal function, sports, production, welfare, and the clinic.
