Abstract:

Digital government refers to the wide application of digital technology in government management and services, promoting the optimization of government governance processes, model innovation, and performance enhancement, and building a new form of digital and intelligent government operation. Laboratory animal management is an important national foundational and strategic support work. It is closely related to digital government construction, and is not only an important part of digital government construction but also a typical application of government digital transformation in the field of science and technology. Digital transformation empowering laboratory animal management is a new proposition of government governance in the digital age, and research on its systematic and holistic reform is crucial. Through digital technologies such as artificial intelligence, big data, and cloud computing, the government can optimize approval process, strengthen in-process and post-event supervision, and promote regional coordination, thereby improving laboratory animal management capacity and service levels. In addition, laboratory animal data sharing contributes to government scientific decision-making and industry supervision. This article summarizes the experience and practices of domestic leading regions in recent years, reviews the background and development process of digital transformation of laboratory animal management in Jiangsu Province, describes the current status of such digital transformation in Jiangsu Province across areas including digital infrastructure, data sharing, and government services, analyzes existing challenges in top-level design, data governance, and data sharing, and, focusing on institutional mechanisms, government functions, data governance, and support systems, puts forward corresponding transformation ideas, frameworks, and pathways and provides an outlook. Thereby it provides a reference for the high-quality development of laboratory animal management in Jiangsu Province and other regions.
