Other information The position of Research Fellow at ESAs Advanced Concepts Team is similar to a regular academic PostDoc placement, however with a few notable key differences ACT RFs have no teaching obligations. However, they will likely be involved in the mentoring of Young Graduate Trainees and stagiaires student interns within the team. As the team does not have a professorlike position, ACT RFs are academically more independent than most postdocs. This implies more freedom but also more responsibility for their research directions and approaches. ACT RFs are joining a diverse, changing and interdisciplinary research team embedded in a large space agency, in contrast to a more specialised, focused research group with close or similar competences. ACT RFs need to actively reach out to other disciplines, to bring their competences to interdisciplinary research projects and to encourage other researchers to join them in their core research projects research at the intersections of disciplines. ACT RFs need to communicate their expertise and research results internally and externally, including potential implications and importance for ESAs longterm strategy.

Genesus global technical report: Adding customer value with genotype information
2018-01-17 01:00:00| ThePigSite - Industry News
Genesus has written a number of articles on the importance of genomic information to improve genetic gain. That is because genomic information can greatly improve the accuracy of estimated breeding values (EBVs), particularly for lowly heritable traits (total number born), traits that can only be collected on the carcass (pH, color, etc), sex limited (litter traits), or difficult/expensive to measure (feed intake). Furthermore, this is the most important benefit to genomics because it ultimately benefits our customers.
