The Roslin Institute at the University of Edinburgh is a BBSRC-funded institute. The Institute undertakes research within the framework of BBSRC Institute Strategic Programmes focussed on the health and welfare of animals, and applications of basic animal sciences in human and veterinary medicine, the livestock industry and food security.
The Roslin Institute's mission is to gain fundamental understanding of genetic, cellular, organ and systems bioscience underpinning common mechanisms of animal development and pathology, and to drive this into prevention and treatment of important veterinary diseases and develop sustainable farm animal production systems.
The Roslin Institute aims to enhance the lives of animals and humans through world class research in animal biology.

Using naturally-occurring variation in beak morphology to reduce feather pecking damage in laying hens
Feather pecking is a welfare concern in laying hens. Blunt beaks may be less able to grasp and remove feathers/tissue; however, the relationship between beak shape and the ability to cause damage is still unclear. Two ... -
