Sex as a biological variable (SABV) symposium

An international symposium on sex as a biological variable (SABV) dedicated to raising awareness of the SABV initiative and providing evidence-based guidance for integrating SABV into research practices.

This years' symposium will focus on the theme of 'Addressing challenges and paving future steps in basic and preclinical research'. The programme includes expert lectures on how sex influences biological processes, alongside presentations from selected abstracts, poster sessions and practical workshops on non-invasive oestrous cycle evaluation and statistical analysis for experimental designs incorporating both sexes.

Organised by the Veterinary Public Health Institute, Animal Welfare Division at the University of Bern and funded by the Swiss 3R Competence Centre and Swiss National Science Foundation.
