Stress – can it be inherited?
Researchers from LiU were among the first to show that stress can be inherited from chickens to their offspring - something that few believed previously. Today, research is conducted in a large, internationally renowned group.

Fearless fowl grow and lay better
A reduced fear of humans can be the driving force behind the characteristics that have developed since wild animals became domesticated, according to research by ethologists at Linköping University (LiU).
Forum Scientium Graduate School
Graduate school Forum Scientium, a bridge between medicine, natural sciences and engineering, stimulates creativity and a common use of ideas, knowledge, and equipment.
Environmental Epigenetics - Guerrero-Bosagna Group
We investigate how environmental exposures such as nutrition, contaminants or stress interfere with developmental and epigenetic mechanisms in various model organisms.
The genomic basis of feralisation and domestication - Wright Group
Our research focuses on the genetic basis of domestication, feralisation and behaviour. We use the twin processes of domestication and feralisation to unravel the genetic basis of complex traits.
Animal behaviour, domestication and welfare – Jensen Group
What guides the many facets of how animals behave? How has it changed during domestication, and what does it tell us about their welfare? Focusing on chickens and dogs, we tackle such questions using ethology, genetics and epigenetics.
Animal behaviour, personality and cognition - Lovlie Group
We are interested in understanding behavioural variation, and most of our research is on causes and consequences of animal personality, including links to cognition, sexual selection. We mainly (but not only) use red junglefowl as our model species.
