Bjorge Laurenssen

Bjorge Laurenssen is a Researcher at the Department of Adaptation Physiology within Wageningen University & Research, focusing on precision livestock farming and animal physiology. His work integrates sensor technology with reproductive biology to address challenges in swine and poultry production systems.

• Key Research Areas: Energy metabolism in livestock
• Reproductive efficiency in sows
• Wearable sensor applications
• Mineral balance and physiological monitoring

Recent publications highlight his innovative use of machines learning algorithms for predicting parturition onset and quantifying dynamic energy expenditure in animals. His studies emphasize optimizing body condition management to improve conceptus development and offspring health across species.

Active collaborations with the European Association for Precision Livestock Farming demonstrate his role in advancing technologies for real-time health monitoring. While no formal awards are listed, his contributions to translucency-based nutritional studies in broiler breeders reflect impactful work in avian embryogenesis.
