Hear from The Babraham Institute in our recent article on animal technicians' critical role in research and their dedication to animal welfare.
Babraham Institute hosted an Instagram takeover with us last year during our week and recently talked to us about this experience. The takeover was an opportunity for Aimee, an animal technician at the institute, to show off her skills, work, and the animals she cares for:
“I’m a massive animal lover, and that’s why I’m an animal technician. I think there are a lot of misconceptions about our role. I wanted to show just how important technicians are to research. We are all animal lovers with a high level of education and experience, dedicated to the care of animals. We should be proud of what we do.”
Due to her leadership in organising Babraham's involvement in this public engagement event, UAR awarded Aimee with the 2023 Professor Sir Colin Blakemore Memorial Award.
“We are really proud of our animal techs,” comments Dr Louisa Wood, Head of Communications at the Babraham Institute. “Providing a platform where people could see them, their work and the animal facility was particularly important to us. It was a team effort, but Aimee’s willingness and enthusiasm really made it a reality. Her personality shone bright.”
Thank you to all of our wonderful animal technicians👏
