Subject: 2025 Arthur B. Chapman Lecturer in Animal Breeding
and Genetics
Date: Fri, 25 Apr 2025 23:14:25 -0500
The 2025 AB Chapman Lecturer in Animal Breeding and Genetics is Dr. Juan
Pedro Steibel (see below for more details, and link for presentation live
stream).
The 2025 AB Chapman Lectures will be held on Monday, April 28, at the
University of Wisconsin-Madison. Dr. Steibel will present a seminar titled
'Behavioral Phenotyping for Selecting Animals Better Adapted to Group-Living
Conditions' at 4:00 PM Central Time in Room 1111 of the MSABD building on
the UW-Madison campus. A live stream of the presentation will be available at:

Juan Pedro Steibel is the J. L. Lush Endowed Chair of Animal Breeding &
Genetics, Department of Animal Science, Iowa State University. Steibel
received his B.S. in agronomy and an M.S. in Biometry from Argentina, and
a Ph.D. in Animal Science from Michigan State University. Juan investigates
development, adaptation, and application of statistical and computational
methods to advance animal production and breeding by integrating multi-omics
data streams. His current and past research spans expression QTL mapping,
genotype imputation, genome-wide association analyses, and high-throughput
behavioral phenotyping and its use to estimate social interaction effects
in group-housed pigs. His work is methodologically innovative and driven by
the needs of the livestock genetics and production industries. In 2023
Steibel received the Innovation in Animal Breeding and Genetics Award from
the American Society of Animal Science.
The A.B. Chapman Lectures in Animal Breeding and Genetics have been presented
annually since 1994 by leading world scholars in the various fields related to
the genetic improvement of livestock.
