EC3R research

Overview of the organoids researched at EC3R

Three-dimensional (3D) tissue culture models have been the subject of research for more than ten years. They are considered an important methodological breakthrough in modern biomedicine and have the potential to contribute significantly to the implementation of the 3Rs principle. Increasing evidence suggests that (human) 3D tissue models can better reflect human biology than traditional 2D culture models and at least some animal models.

However, what is evident is that there is a significant need for research to describe the limitations and capabilities of the models and thus make them more useful for research in 3Rs and biomedicine as a whole.

The goal of the Einstein Center 3R is therefore to create robust models that provide reproducible results across laboratories.

JRC Summer School on Non-Animal Approaches in Science

Please note that registration is closed.

The fourth edition of the Joint Research Centre (JRC) Summer School on Non-animal Approaches in Science: Towards Sustainable Innovation, organized by the European Commission's Joint Research Centre and its EU Reference Laboratory for Alternatives to Animal Testing (EURL ECVAM) will take place on 23.-25.05.2023 in Ispra, Italy.

This summer school is aimed at students or early-career scientists (max. 4 years after masters or PhD) with a strong interest in non-animal approaches working in relevant fields of research and application.

The summer school is free of charge, participants will be selected based on the quality of the poster abstract and their motivation to attend.
