📣 Save the date: The 3rd SABV Biennial Symposium, organized by Dr. Ivana Jarić, will take place at the University of Zurich on 23–24 June 2026. The meeting will focus on why and how sex-inclusive research strengthens biomedical science and translational outcomes. #SABV #SABVinAction #EUSABV

Full interview → youtu.be/ZmcBc6qJaAs If you are working on SABV-related topics, we invite you to join the conversation. Share this with a young researcher who could benefit from this community. #EUSABV #SABVinAction #ScientificRigor #OpenScience #ResearchLeadership

Working Group 5 (WG5)- Communication, Dissemination and Outreach held its kick-off meeting last week within the EU-SABV COST Action. By strengthening science communication, EU-SABV helps turn knowledge into impact. #EUSABV #SABVinAction #ScienceCommunication @costprogramme.bsky.social

Strong SABV practices require shared resources, coordinated expertise, and harmonized approaches across Europe. The EU-SABV COST Action is building a multidisciplinary network to address training gaps, strengthen capacity, and develop evidence-based guidance for SABV. #EUSABV #SABVinAction

Meet the team behind the EU-SABV COST Action — a multidisciplinary network of researchers, clinicians and data experts from across Europe. Together, we advance SABV integration, strengthen scientific rigor, develop training and guidance, and support long-term capacity building. #SABVinAction

Including Sex as a Biological Variable = better data. Scientific rigor begins with study designs that reflect biological reality. Sex influences physiology, disease mechanisms, and responses to interventions. #EUSABV #SABVinAction #ScientificRigor

At the end of our Action, we have compiled a short movie emphasizing major advantages HCM systems offer for animal research and its translatability, and showing some actual videos from the labs. www.youtube.com/watch?v=aOB8pYeDI4U @costprogramme.bsky.social
