German term

Grundlagen und Verhalten

German to English Medical Genetics Vivisection
Sie diskutierten über Grundlagen von Tierschutz und Verhalten

I don't exactly understand what is meant by "Verhalten" here. I suspect it may mean something like:
"the discussed fundamental issues and attitudes regarding animal welfare". The full context is given here: http://tinyurl.com/azokr9

Selected

fundamental/basic (rules of) conduct

or "fundamental issues and rules of conduct" or "good conduct" with respect to animal welfare.

That's what I read from the context.

German term (edited): Grundlagen von Tierschutz und Verhalten

fundamental issues of animal welfare and behaviour

I'd rather be inclined to read this as "Tierschutz und -verhalten". Understanding animal behaviour might be a prerequisite of conducting animal studies such that the stress is minimized for the animals.
