  • Male reproductive physiology: analysis of endocrine regulation, reproductive function, and sensitivity of male reproductive performance to environmental and physiological stressors, with implications for fertility and reproductive efficiency.

  • Stress physiology & performance in domestic mammals: investigation of thermoregulation, behavioural responses, hormonal patterns, and their consequences for animal condition, productivity, and reproductive outcomes.

  • Adaptation & mitigation strategies: evaluation of climate‑smart husbandry solutions—ventilation and cooling systems, nutritional strategies, supplementation, and facility design—validated through empirical, reproducible research.

  • Wild species physiology: study of physiological responses, stress indicators, and reproductive biology in free‑ranging and conservation‑relevant mammalian species, with attention to environmental pressures and adaptive responses.

  • Integrated methods & data: use of physiological phenotypes, hormonal and molecular biomarkers, sensor‑based measures, and high‑resolution environmental data (including THI and composite indices), combined with quantitative models to assess risk, resilience, and expected benefits of management interventions.
