EAAP 2025 – 76th Annual Meeting of the European Federation of Animal Science

Dates: 25th – 29th August 2025
Location: Innsbruck, Austria
Event Website: eaap2025.org

Join Metabolon at EAAP 2025

Metabolon is excited to attend the 76th Annual Meeting of the European Federation of Animal Science (EAAP 2025), taking place in Innsbruck, Austria. This premier international gathering of animal scientists, researchers, and industry stakeholders provides a critical platform for discussing innovations across animal genetics, physiology, nutrition, sustainability, and production systems.

As delegates at this year’s EAAP, Nina Goerner and Simone de Faria Maraschin from Metabolon will be engaging with attendees, exploring how metabolomics can offer valuable insights into animal health, feed efficiency, and precision breeding strategies.

We look forward to joining collaborative sessions, scientific discussions, and networking events aimed at shaping the future of animal science.

Key Themes at EAAP 2025

EAAP 2025 will address a broad range of scientific and industry topics under the unifying theme of “Future-proof livestock farming”. Notable areas of focus include:

Sustainability and Resilience in Livestock Systems
Animal Health and Welfare
Animal Genetics
Advanced Genomics and Breeding Strategies
Precision Livestock Farming and Smart Technologies
Nutrition and Gut Health
Climate Change and Environmental Impact Mitigation

Metabolomics is an essential thread running through these themes, offering a powerful means of connecting genetics, nutrition, health, and the environment. By uncovering metabolic signatures at the phenotype level, it informs genetic selection, optimizes nutritional strategies, enhances animal health monitoring, and supports data-driven sustainability efforts.

The Role of Metabolomics in Animal Science

Metabolomics offers a systems-level lens to interpret the biochemical impact of nutrition, genetics, environment, and disease in livestock and companion animals. By measuring thousands of metabolites in biological samples, it enables:

Deeper understanding of nutrient utilization and feed efficiency
Biomarker discovery for health, stress, and productivity
Optimization of breeding through phenotype-driven insights
Microbiome-host interaction studies and metabolic adaptation
Translational insights from animal models to human health

Why Connect with Metabolon at EAAP 2025?

Why Metabolon?

With 25 years of scientific expertise, over 4,000 publications, more than 15,000 completed projects, and the world’s largest curated metabolite reference library (with more than 5,400 level 1 and level 2 annotated metabolites), Metabolon is the global leader in metabolomics.

Built on high-resolution mass spectrometry and rigorous quality controls, our platform delivers accurate, quantitative metabolite data across species and matrices.

To maximize the value of metabolomic data, we provide an Integrated Bioinformatics Platform that brings together metabolomics with genomics, transcriptomics, and other omics data. Designed for collaboration and with advanced statistical tools, interactive visualizations, and machine learning capabilities, researchers can generate system-wide insights that support evidence-based livestock science and policy.

We’re looking forward to meaningful conversations at EAAP about how metabolomics can support:

Feed formulation and performance optimization
Understanding genetic traits via metabolic phenotyping
Enhancing resilience to climate or pathogenic stressors
Improving animal welfare outcomes
