The Transparency and Reproducibility Committee has arranged a webinar to help researchers improve the reproducibility of findings from their experiments and to reduce the number of animals used in the process.

About the webinar:
A great deal of effort is being invested in improving the reproducibility of findings from individual biomedical experiments. This webinar takes an unusual approach and discusses how the role of an experiment in an entire research investigation can affect its design and the number of animals needed in each experimental. The focus of the webinar will be to explain the reasoning behind a strategy that we recommended for dealing with these different types of experiment and to introduce the audience to a training resource, which is freely accessible on the British Pharmacological Society website (Types of Experiment: https://elearning.bpsassessment.com/session/preview/316/True). The speakers will explain the background to the points raised in this training resource and explain how to use it.

Simon Bate: Developer of the statistical package, InVivoStat and co-author of The Design and Statistical Analysis of Animal Experiments; Bate ST and Clarke RA, 2014, Cambridge University Press.
