What's Your Study Worth? The Value of a Custom Lab Animal Diet as a Research Tool - Free Webinar

Posted on Nov 16, 2014 1:23:00 PM

 
Free Webinar
 
Custom research diets have been and continue to be important tools in significant research discoveries across many therapeutic areas. But should you consider this option for your protocol? If your research involves inducing or developing a phenotype in a laboratory animal then you will want to join this event to learn when and why it is valuable to work with a nutritionist on a diet customized to your research needs. We invite graduate students, postdoctoral and clinical fellows, established researchers, and others involved in matching research needs to the selection of lab animal diet to join us for this free webinar. Dr. Tina Herfel, Harlan Teklad Laboratory Animal Nutritionist, will cover:
How to differentiate between the types of lab animal diets in order to make improved study design decisions.
How custom research diets are used as a research tool to alter animal phenotypes through the concepts of nutrient control, diet-induced diseases, and diet as a vehicle for compound dosing.
The value of collaborating with a nutritionist to select or develop a custom diet to answer your research question.
