ABSTRACT

Despite the fact that the majority of research animals are rodents, the trainers at the Research Animal Resources Center at the University of Wisconsin-Madison found training material on the proper handling of mice and rats in biomedical research to be limited. So, they developed videos, narratives, pictures, and text to teach common handling, inje
