The scientists at the Max Planck Society are committed to keeping the number of animal experiments as well as the strain on the animals as low as possible in the individual experiments. They apply the ...

The Research Institute for Farm Animal Biology (FBN) is setting an important example in the field of animal-free research: the Fish Growth Physiology research group is joining the Federal Network 3Rs ...

Its conclusions are designed to reinforce the UK Home Office regulations for animal experimentation, which in 1959 introduced the '3R' goals—refinement, reduction and replacement—ultimately ...

The 3R concept is the basis for bringing this demand into practice: Replace animal experiments with alternatives where possible, Reduce the number of animals used to a scientifically justified minimum ...

Humans and other animals are relatively similar. Animal experimentation can therefore provide a base for experiments with human subjects or even replace them. Animal experimentation also improves our ...

The mission of the ETH Zurich 3R Hub is to drive measurable and positive change in scientific animal research by promoting the principles of Replace, Reduce, and Refine. The 3R Hub aims to consolidate ...

Reducing the number of animals used; and Refining experiments. “The 3Rs set the framework for developing the culture of care,” said Kathryn Bayne, CEO for AAALAC International, a not-for ...

Animal experiments are widely used to develop new medicines and to test the safety of other products. Many of these experiments cause pain to the animals involved or reduce their quality of life ...

Besides the 3R strategy of reducing, replacing, and refining animal testing, it is to be ensured that all experimental designs are statistically robust, all experiments are registered, and even ...
