About us

GenoPHEnix will be the pan-European research infrastructure integrating genome, phenome and environment information to empower sustainable farm animal breeding.

GenoPHEnix is a proposal for a new RI to enter the ESFRI roadmap built on AQUAEXCEL3.0, SmartCow, PIGWEB and EUROFAANG projects.

 In the relevant scientific fields, GenoPHEnix-RI aims to :

1- Facilitate access to state-of-the-art laboratories, experimental facilities, databases and expertise,

2- Break down scientific "silos" to promote a comprehensive and interdisciplinary approach to global challenges in livestock and aquaculture,

3- Play a central role in the definition of renewed scientific protocols and standards in line with the 3Rs (Replace, Reduce, Refine) principles in animal science, minimising the use of invasive experimental procedures,

4- Increase the quality and quantity of scientific output and human capital formation,

5- Multiply collaborative and contractual research efforts between research, academic organisations and relevant industry stakeholders.
