📢 Must-have tool for researchers, grant reviewers, & IACUC members: 💡 @replanimalres.bsky.social "Replacement Checklist" helps evaluate whether all possible alternatives to animal use in research have been properly considered. replacinganimalresearch.org.uk/resources/re... Why it works 🧵 🧪

As part of @replanimalres.bsky.social work with Universities, we're running workshops at #FELASA2025 on Developing an Institutional 3Rs Strategy.

🧪 We've revised and rewritten our 'Searching for Alternatives' guidance! We've set out basic principles of #searching to help people find and identify information relevant to their specialism, with a step-by-step example. #Science #3Rs #Replacement replacinganimalresearch.org.uk/resources/se...

🧪 We were invited to Dublin by Ireland's Health Products Regulatory Authority (www.hpra.ie/)'s National Committee for the Protection of Animals Used for Scientific Purposes to present 'How to know if Replacement opportunities have been fully explored'. #HPRA #Science

🧪The next Replacing Animal Research Training School will be held on 11th-13th June 2025 in Dublin, Ireland. Ticket sales close Tuesday 6th May - don't miss out! Why attend? Because responsible research requires better design. replacinganimalresearch.org.uk/for-scientis...
