OSCEs can be used to provide formative feedback, or they can be summative, impacting progression decisions. OSCEs can also drive student motivation to engage with clinical skill development and mastery in preparation for clinical placements and rotations. This teaching tip discusses top tips for running an OSCE for veterinary and veterinary nursing/technician students as written by an international group of authors experienced with running OSCEs at a diverse set of institutions. These tips include tasks to perform prior to the OSCE, on the day of the examination, and after the examination and provide a comprehensive review of the requirements that OSCEs place on faculty, staff, students, facilities, and animals. These tips are meant to assist those who are already running OSCEs and wish to reassess their existing OSCE processes or intend to increase the number of OSCEs used across the curriculum, and for those who are planning to start using OSCEs at their institution. Incorporating OSCEs into a curriculum involves a significant commitment of resources, and this teaching tip aims to assist those responsible for delivering these assessments with improving their implementation and delivery. }, journal={JOURNAL OF VETERINARY MEDICAL EDUCATION}, author={Hall, Emily J. and Baillie, Sarah and Hunt, Julie A. and Catterall, Alison J. and Wolfe, Lissann and Decloedt, Annelies and Taylor, Abi J. and Wissing, Sandra}, year={2022}, month={May} }

Therefore, a study was conducted on 54 neonatal lambs to determine whether laterality existed at birth and whether litter size, which would be expected to relate to perinatal stress, or gender influenced laterality of locomotor, tail movement and lying behaviours. The lambs exhibited a normal distribution of laterality when: (1) stepping forward from a standing position, (2) lying, and (3) initial movements of the tail when suckling, during the first 24 h after birth. The gender of the individual and number of siblings had no effect on laterality in these behaviours.}, number={1-2}, journal={Applied Animal Behaviour Science}, publisher={Elsevier BV}, author={Lane, Abi and Phillips, Clive}, year={2004}, month={May}, pages={161–167} }
