Since the last BCLAS symposium in 2019, the Digilab and Digital Ventilated Cage (DVC) 24/7 cage monitoring portfolio continued to evolve towards an easy to use, powerful and affordable tool to boost facility management towards 24/7 Digital Vivarium status.

With the introduction of the latest Emerald IVC line, DVC upgrade, procedure workflows and features became substantially easier without losing is initial power and robustness.

In this interactive workshop will provide an overview of the latest evolutions explained by means of user experiences and results demonstrating the power of the Digital Vivarium facility management, animal welfare and research.
