Continuous Education

This two days course provides the participants with theoretical knowledge and tools for generation of gene-modified animals.

This three-day course offers in-depth training in safe and reproducible anaesthesia of laboratory rodents by world-renowned specialists. 

This one-day course provides the participants with tools to understand the complex genetics of breeding genetically modified animals and introduces concepts of breeding management. 

Dieser eintägige Kurs stattet die Teilnehmenden mit Wissen und Methoden bezüglich der Zucht gentechnisch veränderter Tiere aus.

The participants learn how a well-balanced weighing of interests (Harm-Benefit Analysis) is done.

Die Teilnehmer lernen, wie eine ausgewogene Interessenabwägung (Harm-Benefit-Analyse) vorgenommen wird.

This one day course on necropsy techniques in laboratory animal pathology  lays special emphasis on mice and rats.

Over two days, this course introduces the basic principles of soft tissue surgery and their application in common rodent species. 

This course teaches how to communicate about work in the animal laboratory or husbandry, and how to present daily research work in a way that is appropriate for the lay public.

In diesem Kurs wird gelehrt, wie man über die Arbeit im Tierlabor oder in der Tierhaltung kommuniziert und wie man die tägliche Forschungsarbeit laiengerecht präsentiert.

Die Teilnehmer erhalten eine Einführung in spezielle Applikations- und Blutentnahmetechniken bei der Maus.

Score Sheets sollten in jedem Tierversuch verwendet werden, dafür müssen sie allerdings an die spezifischen Bedingungen während des Versuches angepasst werden, um ihre Aufgabe zu erfüllen.

Score sheets are a vital part of every animal experimentation, but they need to be tailored to the specifics of the experiment in order to work efficiently.

This course will convey a general understanding of what reproducibility means before focusing on key aspects of it.

This one-day course gives participant an overview of important aspects that should be considered before conducting and while conducting an experiment.

This one day course covers fresh questions about animal welfare, animal experiments, animal facilities and others domains of the research involving animals.

This one day course provides the participants with tools to work with gene-modified animals with a focus on small rodents. 

In this one day workshop, participants are introduced to the concept of systematic reviews of animal studies.

The participants learn how to recognize different qualities and quantities of pain in laboratory rodents and how pain influences experimental results.

Die Teilnehmenden lernen unterschiedliche Schmerzarten und -intensitäten bei Labornagern zu erkennen und wie Schmerz Versuchsergebnisse beeinflusst.

 Writing an animal experiment application is not trivial. The ethical and scientific background of the research work and methodological details must be precisely described.  Participants learn practical hints and tips.
