“Animal welfare starts before the experiment!” As the DRFZ’s main Animal Welfare Officer, I am committed to ensuring the highest possible animal welfare standards at the DRFZ – and this starts with animal husbandry. Together with our animal house leader Dr. Lena Reiske, I therefore work to continuously improve animal welfare by optimising breeding and husbandry conditions, promoting communication and constantly raising our standards.
