Technology in Swine Research

Technology is important to research just as research is vital to the improvement of the swine industry. Dalton Obermier is a graduate research assistant and Ph.D. candidate studying at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln (UNL). He recently was part of a joint research team between UNL and DNA Genetics focused on using camera systems to monitor genetic growth potential and feed intake. He discusses this research in this episode of "Inside the Helix," and he also talks about the importance of technology in swine research. The full research study can be found here: https://www.mdpi.com/2076-2615/13/10/1581.
