Does the Incorporation of Ultrasonic Vocalization Analysis Result in More Precise Insights into Animal Welfare in Home Cage Monitoring Systems?

Year: 2026

Type: article

Abstract: Within the SmartStressMonitor project, we develop a home-cage monitoring system combining ultrasonic vocalization and behavioral analysis to assess laboratory mice welfare precisely and objectively, improving research reliability and animal welfare. Roll-up presented in the travelling exhibition ‚A journey through data: Making research visible‘ by the Research Data Management Competence Centre, Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf, opened on Research Data Day NRW, 10 November 2026.
