- the nutrient requirements of poultry;
- the impact of dietary fibre on poultry health and performance;
- the use of feed additives to improve gut microflora and performance;
- the effect of feeding on poultry meat and egg quality;
- factors that cause variation in feed ingredients used in poultry diets;
- alternative feed ingredients for use in poultry feed formulations;
- the impact of gastrointestinal pH on nutrient bioavailability and the intestinal microbiota in poultry;
- phytate and xylan 'susceptibility' in relation to the effects of enzymes;
- factors that influence reactivity and enzyme efficacy;
- in vitro models to determine the digestibility of poultry diets.
