Make a tangible contribution to animal welfare, study reproducibility,



and the quality of the data generated.

What you will do

Monitor general condition, behavior, body weight, food and water intake, and other protocol-defined parameters on a daily basis.
Apply score sheets, humane endpoints, and escalation criteria together with the designated veterinarian and study team.
Manage animal acclimatization, identification, handling, environmental enrichment, and traceability in line with internal procedures.
Prepare materials and equipment and support the pre-, intra-, and post-procedural phases of cardiovascular studies within the scope of documented training.
Collect and manage biological samples and functional data, ensuring correct timing, labeling, and traceability.
Complete clinical records, experimental logs, and databases accurately and promptly.
