Our current work focuses on the European bison, a species with an extremely narrow gene pool, with particular emphasis on understanding the relationship between\u2014and potential impact of\u2014its exceptionally high inbreeding levels on cranial traits.<br \/>We perform genome analyses using the bovine BovineHD BeadChip array (&gt;777,000 SNPs). Our research is based on both contemporary and historical skeletal material, relying on 3D skull models generated with a 3D scanner.
