Molecular Characterization of Group A Rotavirus from Rhesus Macaques (Macaca mulatta) at Human-Wildlife Interfaces in Bangladesh (2019)
Journal Article
Islam, A., Hossain, M. E., Haider, N., Rostal, M. K., Mukharjee, S. K., Ferdous, J., …Epstein, J. H. (2019). Molecular Characterization of Group A Rotavirus from Rhesus Macaques (Macaca mulatta) at Human-Wildlife Interfaces in Bangladesh. Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, https://doi.org/10.1111/tbed.13431

Group A rotavirus (RVA) is an important cause of diarrhea in people, especially children, and animals globally. Due to the segmented nature of the RVA genome, animal RVA strains have the potential to adapt to the human host through re‐assortment with...

The Ethics of Laying Hen Genetics (2019)
Journal Article
Fernyhough, M., Nicol, C. J., Van De Braak, T., Toscano, M. J., & Tønnessen, M. (2019). The Ethics of Laying Hen Genetics. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10806-019-09810-2

Despite societal concerns about the welfare of commercial laying hens, little attention has been paid to the welfare implications of the choices made by the genetics companies involved with their breeding. These choices regarding trait selection and... Read More about The Ethics of Laying Hen Genetics.

Risk-based surveillance for meat-borne parasites (2019)
Journal Article

Light-based monitoring devices to assess range use by laying hens (2019)
Journal Article
Buijis, S., Nicol, C. J., Booth, F., Richards, G., & Tarlton, J. F. (2019). Light-based monitoring devices to assess range use by laying hens. animal, 14(4), 814-823. https://doi.org/10.1017/S1751731119002830

Access to an outdoor range has many potential benefits for laying hens but range use can be poor due to factors only partly understood. Techniques to monitor individual range use within commercial flocks are crucial to increase our understanding of t...
