Animal experimentation is still playing a major role in biomedical and translational research. However, due to limited transferability and ethical concerns on the one side as well as strong technological progress on the other, alternative models get more in focus to address central scientific questions.
This 2-days online course introduces the 3R principle of “Replacement, Reduction and Refinement” and in interactive seminars we discuss ethical aspects how animal welfare in biomedical research can be improved.
This course is aimed at PhD/doctoral students only and attendance will be awarded with 0.8 ECTS-CP.
