In this study, de Bracque et al. used our PortaLite device to measure cerebral oxygenation in baboons, showing how adaptable the technique is across species and environments.

🟡 A non-invasive approach that keeps animal welfare central
🔵 Reliable monitoring of cerebral activity during naturalistic behavior
🟡 New opportunities to understand primate cognition and comparative neuroscience

We are having a "culture of care" discussion day at work related to our research with animals. I wonder if any of you have tips on how to best care for research animals (mostly rodents here) and also staff (animal tech, researchers, students in contact with animals etc.)?

Obviously (at least in the UK / Europe) we already only do ethically-approved experiments, but there's always ways to make our animals more happy (like, enrichment, socialisation etc.).
