Fabrice Ducrest, UNIL - In line with federal figures, animal experimentation at UNIL-CHUV has risen by 4% in 2022. This slight increase is due to the increased use of zebrafish, the boom in cancer research and, above all, the post-Covid catch-up. An update from Laure Seriot, Director of Animal Experimentation at UNIL-CHUV. The Swiss Federal Office for Food Safety and Veterinary Affairs (FVOV) has published the 2022 figures for animal experimentation. The use of animals in research at the University of Lausanne and the CHUV increased by only 4% on the previous year. According to the Director of Animal Experimentation (DEA) at UNIL and CHUV, this slight increase is essentially due to a post-Covid catch-up. Our figures are relatively similar to those for 2019", comments Laure Seriot.
