Aims & Scope
Frontiers in Animal Science is a multidisciplinary open-access journal that publishes rigorous and high-quality research on all aspects of animal science. We aim to provide a platform for researchers to share their findings and contribute to the advancement of animal health, welfare, production, and sustainability. The journal covers a wide range of topics, including animal genetics, breeding, nutrition, physiology, reproduction, behavior, health, disease, and management. We also welcome research on the application of new technologies and methodologies in animal science, such as genomics, bioinformatics, and artificial intelligence. Our goal is to foster collaboration and knowledge exchange among scientists, veterinarians, farmers, and policymakers worldwide.
