Author Information
Dr. Tosso Leeb is affiliated with the Institute of Genetics, Vetsuisse Faculty, University of Bern, located at Bremgartenstrasse 109a, 3012 Bern, Switzerland. His research primarily focuses on the genetic basis of diseases and traits in domestic animals, with a particular emphasis on dogs, cats, and livestock.Research Contributions
Dr. Tosso Leeb has made significant contributions to the field of genetics, particularly in the context of animal genetics. His recent research includes studies on genetic mutations affecting canine morphology and diseases, such as the FYCO1 frameshift deletion in Wirehaired Pointing Griffon dogs with juvenile cataracts and the LTBP3 frameshift variant in British Shorthair cats with complex skeletal dysplasia. Additionally, his work on runs of homozygosity in Swiss goats provides insights into the genetic changes associated with domestication and modern selection. Dr. Leeb's research has broad implications for understanding genetic diseases, improving breeding programs, and enhancing the health and well-being of domestic animals.Aliases
Dr. Tosso Leeb is also known by several aliases, including T Leeb, T. Leeb, and T. S. W. Leeb.Publication and Citation Metrics
