The gut microbiome of research animals: Implications and remedies for reproducibility and translatability

During this free webinar from Responsible Research in Practice, Dr Nikki Osborne is joined by Dr Aaron Ericsson to discuss the impact of the gut microbiome on animal research models, including implications for reproducibility. 

Topics covered include:

• Husbandry factors that affect the microbiome and effects on model phenotypes.
• Implications for translatability to human health and disease including differences in antigen burden.
• Relevant best practices including faecal banking, accurate reporting, and housing strategies.
• Further information and useful resources.
