European Master in Animal Breeding and Genetics

Posredujem novico o štipendijah za študij "European Master in Animal Breeding and Genetics". Kratek pregled predmetnikov (Course contents) na spletni strani http://www.emabg.eu pokaže, da je večina predmetov na temo genetike in selekcije na splošno in ločeno po vrstah živali, ki so pomembne za živinorejo. Je pa na voljo tudi nekaj bolj splošnih predmetov, ki bi lahko bili zelo zanimivi - psi in mačke!
