We are pleased to announce that the doctorate student, Naila Fukimoto, and the professors, Carine Savalli Redigolo and Natalia de Souza Albuquerque, winned the 2023 Improving Pet Welfare Award from the Journal of Veterinary Behavior awards. The Improving Pet Welfare Award was achieved because of their paper “Synchronous citizen science: A new method for cat behavior research”.

As the Journal of Veterinary Behavior have wrote: “The Improving Pet Welfare award is given to one paper which presents original, evidence-based research in dogs, cats, birds and/or horses, investigating the prevention, reduction or assessment of fear, anxiety, and stress associated with veterinary visits, including travel, facilities, procedures, hospitalization, or return home. Studies conducted in shelter facilities related to evaluating measures or assessing interventions will be considered if they achieve outcomes that would have direct applications to veterinary visits or hospitalization”(2023).
