The Institute of Animal Reproduction and Food Research of the Polish Academy of Sciences (IARFR PAS) is carrying out interdisciplinary research on the environmental impacts on the well-being of humans and animals. The EU-funded WELCOME2 project will upgrade the Institute’s research potential and ensure its full participation in the European Research Area (ERA).
