VisioChick - Mixed Reality in the chicken house as a door opener for knowledge transfer and animal welfare (Project)
Seeing animal welfare and animal protection from the animal's perspective - this is the approach of the VisioChick project. As a first step, the basic physiological characteristics of poultry are 'translated' to enable an understanding of the animal and thus the basis for adapting the environment to the animal's needs. On the basis of modern virtual reality (VR) glasses, a change of perspective...

Perception of pain in chicken embryos (Project)
The amendment of the Animal Welfare Act of 18.6.2021 included a 'prohibition of chick killing'. The ban entered into force on 1.1.2022. It also provides that from 1.1.2024 a termination of the incubation after sex determination in the egg may take place only until the sixth day of breeding. The aim of the project is to determine as precisely as possible the point in time of the onset of...

Investigation of the early use of horses and possible measures to prevent physical or psychical overload (Project)
Within the framework of the joint project HorseWatch, the influence of the horse breed and training conditions, the age at the beginning of use and the husbandry system on the health, behaviour and well-being of horses used at a very early age in riding and racing is to be evaluated. A consortium of proven specialists has been formed for this purpose in order to be able to fundamentally assess...

Changes in climate and land use driving the spread of antibiotic resistance between animal and agricultural niches (Project)
The ResistChange project aims to investigate the impact of climate change on the spread of antibiotic resistance from livestock manure in soils under different agricultural management practices. Antibiotic resistance is a global health problem that requires a comprehensive One Health perspective, as bacteria and resistance genes can be transferred between humans, animals and the environment....

Evaluation of isoflurane anesthesia for piglet castration in Germany (Project)
The project aims to evaluate the implementation of automated isoflurane anesthesia for piglet castration by qualified people on conventional and organic farms. Particular importance should be given to animal welfare indicators, work safety and experiences from the long-term and intensive use of the devices concerning functionality and safety. The functionality of the devices and proper...

Non-invasive zoonosis and antimicrobial resistance surveillance along globally significant wetland environments (Project)
This pilot project aims to establish a non-invasive surveillance method based on real-time genomic analyses of environmental samples to assess the zoonotic and antimicrobial resistance potential of natural environments, using wetlands as avian hotspots as an example of a typical One Health interface. In particular, we will use non-invasive actively and passively collected water and air samples to...
