Efficient Lab Animal moNitoring

ELAN

Conventional home cages used in rodent research are small and only allow the animals to display a limited range of their natural behaviors. This is bad for the animals' welfare and also poor science. In this project, we will develop a new, larger home cage in which rats can freely move about. We will also develop new sensor technology, so the animals can be monitored 24/7, giving valuable scientific data and better and cheaper welfare monitoring.
