Abstract

Nonhuman animal models continue to be indispensable in neuroscience research for the foreseeable future. In recent years, animal-right activists have been increasing the pressure on politicians and policymakers to phase out animal research. To address this pressure, we should adapt our communication habits, to be more open and transparent about (our) animal research and most importantly to expand the methods we use to communicate about our research and increase the extend of this outreach. In this editorial, we discuss the why and how of animal research communication.

动物研究的公开性和透明度：为什么？

在可预见的未来，非人类动物模型仍然是神经科学研究中不可或缺的。近年来，动物右翼分子不断向政治家和决策者施压，要求逐步淘汰动物研究。为了应对这种压力，我们应该调整我们的交流习惯，使（我们的）动物研究更加开放和透明，最重要的是要扩大我们用于交流研究的方法，并扩大这种外联活动的范围。在这篇社论中，我们将讨论动物研究交流的原因和方法。

期刊介绍： EJN is the journal of FENS and supports the international neuroscientific community by publishing original high quality research articles and reviews in all fields of neuroscience. In addition, to engage with issues that are of interest to the science community, we also publish Editorials, Meetings Reports and Neuro-Opinions on topics that are of current interest in the fields of neuroscience research and training in science. We have recently established a series of ‘Profiles of Women in Neuroscience’. Our goal is to provide a vehicle for publications that further the understanding of the structure and function of the nervous system in both health and disease and to provide a vehicle to engage the neuroscience community. As the official journal of FENS, profits from the journal are re-invested in the neuroscientific community through the activities of FENS.
