Large Animals 3Rs Symposium

On 20th November, we look forward to welcoming c. 75 attendees and speakers to the University of Edinburgh's 3Rs awards for large animals studies, held at the Roslin Institute.

Following the success of the laboratory animals awards back in May, a poster competition will be held for application of 3Rs to studies using large animals models, with prizes per category for scientists and animal technicians/vet nurses/grooms who come up with an original, scientific or technological initiative that minimises animal suffering and improves the welfare of animals used in research, or has contributed to a reduction in the number of animals used; or has led to the development of an alternative, non-animal method.

We look forward to seeing successful candidates' work at the Symposium tomorrow, with a morning of talks and posters, all co-organised with Bioresearch and Veterinary Services.
