Hossein Jorjani

Hossein Jorjani
I am a quantitative geneticist by training, and an animal breeder by profession.

Presentation

I work as the senior geneticist and R&D manager at the Interbull Centre (www.interbull.org, which is the EU Reference Laboratory for Zootechnics, Bovine breeding). My job is to contribute to the development of international genetic and genomic evaluation systems.

Undervisning

I teach population genetics at the undergraduate level, and quantitative genetics at the PhD level.

Forskning
