DVC System: a fantastic tool to Improve Animal Modelling with 24/7 Home Cage Monitoring in Bio-exclusion/Biocontainment Mouse Housing Systems

An interesting live Webinar, organized on May 14th 2020,  entitled “Improving Animal Modelling with 24/7 Home Cage Monitoring in Bio-exclusion/Biocontainment Mouse Housing Systems” will discover the latest added value of the DVC®  technology applied to the ISO Caging system in terms of data replicability, animal welfare and better science with 24/7 locomotor activity data in an important moment as today, when a surging response to the COVID-19 pandemic has led to an exponential increase in study support for biocontainment and bio-exclusion research.

Mouse models are being rapidly developed in both areas, and biosafe housing of these animal models is critical. Additionally, the webinar will show how non-invasive home cage monitoring can improve the translational value of these research models.

The Webinar will show with examples how Locomotor activity patterns can be monitored 24/7 as a diagnostic tool for biosecurity studies. Researchers, staff and animals alike will also benefit from a decreased need for animal handling, caging manipulations and animal monitoring.

This webinar will be most valuable for institutions where biocontainment and bio-exclusion work is being considered or conducted, and for researchers who wish to better understand what can be achieved through continuous measurement of animal welfare based of use of non-invasive activity monitoring.

This webinar will show the added value of the DVC®  and how  home cage monitoring can improve the value for better research reporting and reproducibility while potentially reducing stress in lab mice, ultimately accelerating research results.

Speakers will be:

  • John Hasenau, DVM, DACLAM, CEO of Lab Animal Consultants. John will present the Current Biosafety Caging and the  needs from the research point of view
  • Stefano Gaburro, PhD, Scientific Director – Digilab Solutions, Tecniplast S.p.A., will present what can Home Cage Monitoring teach us in Biosafety Studies

The Webinar is organized by the on line Platform InsideScientific ( https://insidescientific.com), built for life science researchers helping them to do better science.

If you want to follow the webinar and ask questions to the speakers, the webinar will be organized live on: Thu. May 14, 2020, with starting time at 11:00 AM EDT and duration of 60 minutes
