I am a researcher and work with small ruminants and dairy cows. The projects mainly deal with feeding, animal husbandry, animal products and buildings. In addition to research, I do some teaching and administrative work.

Teaching
I am responsible for the sheep part of the ruminant course at the animal science programme. I also do some more teaching, mainly on small ruminants, and supervise student thesis works.
