Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Law
  • Endocrinology

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Corticosterone, Glucocorticoid and Animal science. His Endocrinology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Stressor and Broiler. Harry J. Blokhuis has researched Corticosterone in several fields, including Catecholamine and Feather pecking, Feather.

His Animal science research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Treadmill and Salivary cortisol. His research in Salivary cortisol tackles topics such as Personality psychology which are related to areas like Aggression and Developmental psychology. His Developmental psychology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Coping and Boldness.

His most cited work include:

  • Coping styles in animals: current status in behavior and stress-physiology. (2045 citations)
  • Review of the Community Summary Report on Trends and Sources of Zoonoses, Zoonotic agents and Antimicrobial Resistance in the European Union in 2005 (309 citations)
  • Housing familiar male wildtype rats together reduces the long-term adverse behavioural and physiological effects of social defeat (250 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Harry J. Blokhuis spends much of his time researching Welfare, Animal science, Internal medicine, Public economics and Endocrinology. His research in Welfare intersects with topics in Quality, Production, Legislation, Veterinary medicine and Animal Welfare. He focuses mostly in the field of Veterinary medicine, narrowing it down to matters related to Animal husbandry and, in some cases, Agricultural economics.

Harry J. Blokhuis has included themes like Feather pecking and Salivary cortisol in his Animal science study. His work carried out in the field of Internal medicine brings together such families of science as Dairy cattle, Stressor and Animal-assisted therapy. The Glucocorticoid study combines topics in areas such as Adrenocorticotropic hormone and Circadian rhythm.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Welfare (33.55%)
  • Animal science (25.16%)
  • Internal medicine (18.06%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2010-2021)?

  • Welfare (33.55%)
  • Public economics (18.71%)
  • Animal Welfare (15.48%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His main research concerns Welfare, Public economics, Animal Welfare, Veterinary medicine and Broiler. In the subject of general Welfare, his work in Animal welfare science is often linked to Protocol, thereby combining diverse domains of study. His Public economics research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Quality, Production, Legislation, Livestock farming and Certification.

His Veterinary medicine research includes themes of Animal husbandry, Affect and Agricultural science. His study on Broiler is covered under Animal science. He combines subjects such as Gait, Body weight and Baseline level with his study of Animal science.

Between 2010 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Potential risk factors associated with contact dermatitis, lameness, negative emotional state, and fear of humans in broiler chicken flocks (48 citations)
  • Equine stereotypic behaviors: Causation, occurrence, and prevention (42 citations)
  • Improving farm animal welfare : science and society working together: the welfare quality approach (41 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Internal medicine
  • Law
  • Endocrinology

Harry J. Blokhuis mainly focuses on Public economics, Welfare, Animal welfare science, Production and Developmental psychology. His research in Public economics is mostly concerned with Animal Welfare. His Animal Welfare study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Quality, Legislation, Certification and Best practice.

His studies in Welfare integrate themes in fields like Litter and Risk factor. His Animal welfare science research integrates issues from Management science and Food security. His Developmental psychology study combines topics in areas such as Causation and Cribbing.
