Optimising experimental design needs a sound understanding of basic principles and a good appreciation of a range of designs and when to use them. More than ten years ago it was clear t...
The environment has been found to be a major contributor to data variability and many aspects of the laboratory environment are stressful to rodents and do not accurately reflect the human ex...
A number of elements come into the mix when trying to optimise experimental design. Among these are having clear objectives, setting up valid comparisons, knowing how to avoid bias during the...
Animal models have provided an important tool to help make the decision to take potential therapies from preclinical studies to humans. In the past several years, the strong reliance of the p...
Surgerized animals play a crucial role in preclinical research aimed at drug and medical device discovery into treatments for humans. When implementing new in-house surgical models to perform...
This presentation will discuss variables in rodent colony management that can affect colony breeding efficiency, rodent health, and factors that can modulate rodent models of disease. V...
The use of laboratory animals requires education and training of persons who are to design and/or perform animal experiments. It is essential for these persons to practice various procedures...
