Additionally, not everything appears on video. We have found major differences between identical studies run in rooms set at different temperatures. Also, many of the procedures I do would essentially require a camera operator to capture all of the movement. I take a cage out of a rack, take a mouse out of the cage, weigh it, dose it, etc.
- hackuser 10y ago> not everything appears on video Sure, but a lot of information does appear. Not everything appears in papers; should we stop publishing them?
- jonlucc 10y agoNo, but the burden of videography is a lot higher than the burden of writing a paper. In fact, a paper isn't written for every study, so in order to write a paper, you'd have to take video of every study just in case one of them is used in a paper in the future. It's a much higher burden than people want to believe. Add to that the fact that most animal facilities won't add cameras unless you force them at gunpoint because historically, videos of that sort make for targeting by protest groups.
