Projektbeschreibung der*des Nominierenden
| Professor Gianola is an international authority in the field of quantitative animal breeding and statistical genetics. In the last twenty years, he single-handedly brought Bayesian statistical methods to the field of animal breeding. Today, Bayesian methods are widely accepted as a most powerful conceptual framework and have been applied to various fields of animal genetics and elsewhere. In Germany, Professor Gianola will expand his research on the use of semi-parametric and machine learning procedures for prediction of genetic value for quantitative traits using massive molecular information. |
