Prof. Peter H. Feindt and his research team focus on the transformation of agricultural and food systems towards sustainability, resilience, and fairness. To do this, we analyze the design and impact of individual policy instruments, policy mixes, and more comprehensive political and societal governance strategies. We employ qualitative, quantitative, and participatory-interactive methods. Prof. Feindt has extensive experience in research on agricultural, environmental, and technology policy, sustainability transformations, and the resilience of agricultural systems.

Scientific Services
  • Consulting for public authorities, NGOs, and industry associations in the agricultural and food sectors
  • Analysis of governance structures and policy-making
  • Development of strategies for improving governance and policy designs
  • Conducting workshops to analyze and resolve transformation conflicts in the agricultural and food sectors
  • Continuing education offerings in the areas of agricultural and food policy

Prof. Feindt and his team have already conducted extensive projects for federal and state ministries, the European Commission, and various associations. He is also the Chairman of the Scientific Advisory Board for Biodiversity and Genetic Resources at the Federal Ministry of Food and Agriculture, a member of the Scientific Advisory Board for Agricultural and Food Policy at the same ministry, a member of the German Bioeconomy Council, and a member of the board of the German Alliance for Agricultural Research (DAFA).

Expertise

Prof. Kaufmann's research and that of her research group is concerned with the molecular mechanisms of gene regulation in plants. Plant developmental processes require coordinated changes in the activity of a large number of genes in the nucleus. These are controlled by specific transcription factors interacting with epigenetic regulators. We are investigating the molecular modes of action and gene regulatory networks of these regulatory proteins.

In addition, Kaufmann and her team are interested in environment-independent variation, and evolutionary changes in these networks. In addition, there is interest in the molecular mechanisms that control the activities of genes during development, using a combination of epigenomics, proteomics, and classical genetics. Their model system is flower development. By combining experimental and computational analyses, the team aims to understand multicellular development at the systems level.

Scientific Services

Expertise

Professor Hillman's research focuses on the influence of husbandry conditions and management practices on the welfare of farm animals. Her research in the area of animal welfare ranges from the validation of animal welfare indicators, including animal health, to the practical implementation of animal welfare measures.

Hillmann and her team concentrate on animal behavior. In addition, they use information on animal health, such as (stress)-physiological variables and economically relevant characteristics (e.g., meat quality).

Ethical and legal considerations also play a role in her research. However, practical problems in animal husbandry are in the foreground.  Besides classical behavioral observations, often with the help of video recordings, stress-physiological, clinical and cognitive parameters are added, but also techniques for automated recording of animal behavior.
Many problems in animal husbandry are related to a disturbance in behavioral control. Professor Hillmann's basic research in behavioral control thus also leads to solutions of practically relevant behavioral problems in farm, pet, laboratory, and zoo animals. Such solutions work at the roots of the problems because they are based on causal understanding of the underlying control mechanism.
In both application and basic questions, the measurement and consideration of the animals emotion plays a critical role as a component in the control of behavior, as well as in relation to their welfare.

Her research thus moves in the area of tension between scientific/clinical basic research, application and questions from the fields of agricultural economics and social sciences.

  • Equipment for behavioral observation (video/3D acceleration)
  • NaTiMon (BMEL): Development of basic principles for regular, indicator-based monitoring and reporting on the status of animal welfare of sheep and goats in Germany, as well as its change over time.

He and his team aim to bridge the gap between structural and cell biology, and in particular to unravel the mechanistic aspects of how cells sense and respond to their environment.  This includes how cells use forces to study interactions with other molecules such as receptor-ligand interactions to switch biochemical functions, such as T-cell activation, migration, or their interaction with the extracellular matrix. We are also investigating how these findings can be used for biomedical applications.

We use state-of-the-art single molecule microscopy techniques such as super-resolution microscopy, AFM and optical tweezers to gain insights into general aspects of mechanobiology, membrane biophysics, neurobiology and immunology.
