This Open Access volume is the first book on home-cage monitoring (HCM), carefully prepared by an international team of experts to improve the outcome of animal behavior research.
Home Cage Monitoring in Rodents: A Global Effort is an Open Access volume and the first book on home-cage monitoring (HCM), carefully prepared by an international team of experts to improve the outcome of animal behaviour research. It offers essential information for anyone entering the world of continuous monitoring, addressing animal welfare and translatability in animal models. Comprehensively structured, the book guides you from user training through technologies, rodent models, study design, and commercialisation to data analysis and sharing.
HCM allows for uninterrupted monitoring of rodents during their active phases with a minimum impact on the animals. This enables them to exhibit natural behaviours in a familiar environment. Moreover, continuous monitoring allows us to pick up animal welfare issues that otherwise might have been missed.
As such, the present work is an indispensable contribution to the refinement of experimental conditions and animal wellbeing, ultimately enhancing data reproducibility and translational value. Alongside biomedical researchers, veterinarians and animal care personnel, experts in animal behaviour, laboratory animal science, and data science will also recognise the value of this instructive and unique guide.
