Meet the team of EU-SABV!
This is a group of researchers with a special interest of including sex as a biological variable into their work.
For the next 4 years, this team will work to enhance current SABV policy in preclinical research!

Happy and honored to be at the Erice Workshop “Epigenetics: From Molecules to Behavior”, where I’ll be talking about epigenetic dynamics and how they connect hormones, environment, and behavior. Looking forward to 3 days of discussions and beautiful views!

Huge thanks to everyone who joined our Symposium #MNS2025 on #SABV, as well as to the amazing speakers!
Take-home: It is not enough to simply include both sexes, development, settings, and context also matter. We need to take these factors into account to increase the translational relevance
