Throughout the year we will be showcasing submissions from last year’s Research Photo Competition, to highlight the diverse range of research that takes place here at BU.

This week’s image is taken from our research investigating the origins, dispersal and impact of the domestic chicken in relation to the environment. The research is being led by BU’s Jacqueline Pitt.

More information about this research project and others that were submitted as part of the competition can be found on the research website.

We hope you enjoy viewing all the images and reading about the related research, and it inspires you to enter this year’s Research Photo Competition, which will be open for entries shortly. For more details about the competition, please email us.
