Our research contributes to an increased understanding of the behaviour and welfare of animals, and deals with areas such as abnormal behaviour in farm animals, cognition and positive emotions in pets, human/animal and animal/animal interaction, as well as conservation biology. We are responsible for the three-year Ethology and Animal Welfare programme.
