About us
As animal breeding relies on the availability of accurate and specific phenotype data to reach its goals, phenotyping is increasingly being recognised as a limiting factor in all applications of livestock genetics and genomics. The acquisition of relevant phenotypes is also fundamental to routine and daily management of livestock populations in order to optimise reproduction strategies, disease control and welfare of the animals. Consequently, this knowledge gap needs to be filled to facilitate long-term improvement and a sustainable landscape for livestock production. Phenomics is emerging as a major new technical discipline in biology. Phenomics is focused on one major aim: to systematically describe the phenome, referred to as the physical and molecular traits of an organism. This discipline can be defined as the ensemble of methodologies and technologies for the acquisition, analysis and exploitation of high-dimensional phenotypic data on an organism-wide scale. EU-LI-PHE will create a Europe-centred multidisciplinary, interconnected and inclusive community of experts that will enhance scientific collaboration, catalyse developments, and transfer livestock phenomics concepts and applications to improve the sustainability and competitiveness of the European livestock production sector. The Action will provide i) an overview of phenotyping technologies and infrastructures for applications in livestock phenomics, ii) approaches and methods for genome to phenome integration in livestock species, iii) computational resources and data analysis methods needed for this big data discipline, iv) a regulatory framework and a societal vision on livestock phenomics and v) a training environment for the benefit of the next generation of researchers in this field.

EU-LI-PHE CA22112 was at the COST Connect event organized in Brussels by the COST Association - European Cooperation in Science and Technology to networking with other COST Actions focused on agricultural and food systems. EU-LI-PHE CA22112 was represented by Adna Ašić (science communication coordinator), Patricia Ask-Gullstrand (Young Researches and Innovators co-coordinator) and by Luca Fontanesi (Action chair) A great opportunity to create a critical mass of research-based concepts to support the development of science oriented European agricultural policies with a long-term vision where the animal production should play a key role.

EU-LI-PHE at the COST Action Connect Event We were thrilled to have Tomas Norton and Geena C. represent EU-LI-PHE at the recent COST Action Connect event. Thank you for the invitation and for facilitating connections with so many COST Actions. It was a pleasure to engage in meaningful discussions with such a nice group of experts.
Achieving the Sustainable Development Goals is a global challenge where scientific input is a must and COST Actions are an invaluable asset for this endeavour. Today we hosted a COST Connect on advancing research to achieve the United Nations SDGs. The event showcased the collaborative efforts of COST Actions currently involved and collaborating with different UN agencies and raised awareness about best practices in the presence of UNRIC and UNESCO representatives. Covering areas from illicit trade, to mental health, migration, soil health, active ageing, ocean health, saline agriculture, and the future of plant based food the diversity and impact of COST Actions in supporting the SDGs is limitless.
