Norecopa

Norecopa is Norway's national platform for the #3Rs: Replacement, Reduction and Refinement of animal experiments. Links to global resources for better research

Can you improve a burnt cake by describing it better?! We need your help to convince scientists planning animal studies to start on day 1: better validity & welfare. Pls forward. Shameless plug for PREPARE, which covers *all* aspects of experimental design https://t.co/WiPxIV6Dv9

[Adrian Smith @adrian_3r]

Important to know from day 1 (a) what you will have to report (ARRIVE) and (b) all that you should consider when planning (PREPARE), because there are many issues which never get reported but which affect data validity, reproducibility, animal welfare and health & safety.

A great week for the zebrafish community! It began with a 3-day hands-on husbandry course, and ended with a 2-day meeting where representatives from nearly all the Nordic facilities established a Nordic Zebrafish Network, and a Steering Group to manage it. 1/n

An excellent opportunity for those who missed FRAME's Training School in Bergen this year. Happy to be part of this initiative showcasing the importance of good preparation and design #PREPARE #3Rs

Next Wednesday, Oct 18th is the DEADLINE to register for this course. Come to Porto in December to learn how to:

- Better design your experiments
- Improve reproducibility
- Minimize number of animals used while increasing study reliability #3Rs

[University of Zurich @UZH_en]

UZH is developing alternative methods to animal experiments in line with the 3Rs principle. To highlight outstanding achievements of its members, the university has introduced the UZH 3R Award, which has now gone to Giuseppe Esposito & Melanie Generali.

@VVoikar @COST_TEATIME @caimprove @FernandoUarquin Great work, Vootele! If folks mention the International #cultureofcare Network, it would be great if you could remind everyone that the Network has a really simple shortcut to its website: https://t.co/vwKrAZbLdq

Ideas on how Open Science can support the #3Rs and improve research protocols which contain plans that may involve the use of animals. A great collaboration with colleagues at Utrecht University and beyond: https://t.co/UZsOlsTnc0

Today at #WC12Canada I presented an overview of the work of @norecopa entitled "a one-stop-shop for global #3R resources", which is indeed our aim. My slides are available at https://t.co/xK0u7jw645. See if you agree with me😉

[Norecopa @norecopa]

@GKGriffin @WC12Canada looking forward to seeing you!
