The RSPCA/UFAW Rodent Welfare Group holds a one-day meeting every autumn for its members to discuss current welfare research and exchange views on rodent welfare issues. A key aim of the group is to encourage people to think about the whole lifetime experience of laboratory rodents, ensuring that every potential impact on their well-being has been reviewed and refined. The 2005 meeting focused on the refinement of techniques used in the creation of GM rodents, especially genotyping and vasectomy.
