Building bridges: Involvement of animal care staff and laboratory technicians in experimental planning and conduct of animal studies for better job satisfaction and science

Fernando Gonzalez-Uarquin, Paulin Jirkof, Bettina Bert, Penny Hawkins et autres

The involvement of non-scientific staff in discussions about animal welfare and scientific quality is essential for biomedical research progress. In this study, we developed a survey to collect the self-perception of animal care staff (ACS) and laboratory technicians about their involvement in …

A call for preregistration of in vitro research

Céline Heinl, Nuno Henrique Franco, Bettina Bert, Katherina Siewert et autres

This article highlights the benefits of preregistration in improving the reliability and transparency of in vitro studies. By preregistering their studies, researchers can make their findings more reproducible, paving the way for medical progress, and accelerating the replacement of animal experiments.

SMAFIRA: deep machine learning to assist researchers in finding alternatives to animal testing

Bettina Bert, Céline Heinl, Konrad Gulich, Mariana Neves et autres

Before conducting an animal experiment, researchers have to consider all 3R methods to replace, reduce and refine the use of animals. An essential part of the application for approval is scientifically substantiated evidence that the planned animal experiment cannot be replaced by …

Stellt die praktische Ausbildung von Tierheilpraktikern einen Tierversuch dar? Fragen aus dem Alltag des Nationalen Ausschuss zum Schutz von Versuchstieren.

Tanja Schmidt, Philipp Schwedhelm, Tobias Wagenknecht, Bettina Bert

Der Nationale Ausschuass zum Schutz von Versuchstieren (kurz: Nationaler Ausschuss) befasst sich im Wesentlichen damit, das Wohlergehen von Versuchstieren zu verbessern und die Umsetzung des Tierversuchsrechts zu harmonisieren. Ofz gibt es aber auch Überschneidungspunkte zur tierärztlichen Praxis außerhalb des Labors, z. B. …

Extracting the Research Goal from Biomedical Abstracts

Mariana Neves, Ines Schadock, Daniel Butzke, Gilbert Schönfelder et autres

Abstract Extracting the research goal of a publication can potentially support researchers when searching the biomedical literature. Systems can make use of this information for various tasks, e.g., query processing or matching and ranking the candidates. However, this is a very subjective …

Peer Review Report For: Protocol for the systematic review of age and sex in preclinical models of age-correlated diseases [version 2; peer review: 2 approved]

Kai Diederich, Matthias Steinfath, Alexandra Bannach-Brown, Bettina Bert et autres

The translation of animal-based biomedical research into clinical research is often inadequate. Maximizing translation should be central to animal research on human diseases, guiding researchers in study design and animal model selection. However, practical considerations often drive the choice of animal model, …
