Addressing the Preclinical Reproducibility Crisis Using Digital Home Cage Monitoring

Reproducibility is a cornerstone of scientific progress, but traditional methods of data collection in animal studies often fall short, introducing variability that clouds interpretation and slows translational insight.Through the collaborative efforts of the Digital In Vivo Alliance, we’re working to change that. Members of DIVA’s Animal Health Husbandry and Welfare focus group set out to run a cross-site study aimed at measuring the variance we all assume to exist in our animal studies but is difficult or impossible to measure with standard approaches. Join DIVA member Dr. Michael Saul, of The Jackson Laboratory for a webinar showcasing how AI-powered, digital home-cage monitoring enables more consistent, minimally invasive phenotyping, reducing human subjectivity and helping researchers uncover clear, decision-driving insights from noisy datasets.
