What the organisation does

The Institute of Laboratory Animal Science (LTK) is part of the University of Zurich and conducts basic and translational research in laboratory animal science, animal welfare and immunology. Based at UZH Campus Schlieren in the canton of Zurich, it contributes to preclinical research methods and evidence. Its Neuroendocrinology Group studies links between stress, female reproductive health and psychiatric disorders, including endometriosis-associated depression, and develops guidance for integrating sex as a biological variable in rodent research. Its women’s-health relevance lies in research rather than clinical care or commercial solutions.
