Abstract

<p>In recent years, civil society has begun to waver in its trust in the basic principle of ensuring reproducibility in scientific research. In particular, “standardization of techniques” has become an issue in many fields related to laboratory animals and animal experiments, which are premised on the existence of animal lives that are injured, pained, and sacrificed for the sake of scientific research. We, laboratory animal technicians, are always the closest to laboratory animals. We always have practiced breeding management, pre- and post-operative care, experimental treatment etc. by making the best use of our knowledge and techniques. That bring accurate experimental results. It is our significance. Technology is only meaningful if passed down to the next generation. In this report, I would like to introduce the technical seminars conducted by the Japan Association for Laboratory Animal Technicians, a national organization of laboratory animal technicians, and the pursuit of “skills to pass on” in these sessions.</p>
