Personal profile
Research
I am interested in optimizing commercial breeding programs for plants and animals. My research aims at sustainable approaches to optimize these breeding programs by addressing genotype-by-environment interactions, reducing agrochemical usage in agriculture, and tackling climate change. I am also interested in developments of statistical models for estimation of variance components and prediction of breeding values that used for continuous, categorical and binary traits.
