Manon van Marwijk

Manon van Marwijk is a Researcher in the Adaptation Physiology department at Wageningen University & Research. Her work focuses on Animal Science, Animal Welfare, and Physiology, with a particular emphasis on Hermetia illucens applications in livestock nutrition and thermogenesis in poultry. She collaborates extensively with colleagues like Inonge Reimert, Jan E. Bolhuis, and others on interdisciplinary projects bridging Nutritional Biochemistry and Livestock Management.

• Active in developing automated welfare assessment tools for pigs (2024)
• Key contributor to optimizing broiler housing temperatures (2023)
• Research on insect-based feed for piglet weaning (2022)

Her publications demonstrate a focus on stress response mechanisms, behavioral adaptation, and nutritional interventions, often leveraging experimental models and peer-reviewed methodologies. Collaborations span European institutions with networked research on Hermetia illucens and animal resilience.
