Join us on April 24, 2025, at 1 pm EST/ 7 pm CET (24 abr. 2025 02:00 da tarde in São Paulo), for a special edition of the 3Rs Training Webinar Series, hosted by Dr. Kathrin Herrmann, Director of CAAT’s Beyond Classical Refinement Program. In recognition of the International Day to Abolish Animal Use in Science, this thought-provoking event will explore why animal experimentation continues to dominate scientific research – even in the face of compelling ethical arguments and decades of data highlighting its poor reproducibility and limited human relevance.

Part I: Presentation by Love Hansell

“The Resilience of Animal Experimentation: Understanding Systemic Barriers to Scientific Progress”
Duration: approx. 50 minutes, followed by a short Q&A

Part II: Panel Discussion

“Navigating Change: Early-Career Perspectives on Advancing Non-Animal Methods (NAMs)”
Duration: approx. 60 minutes

This webinar is ideal for researchers, educators, students, and advocates interested in the future of science without animals. Whether you’re new to NAMs or already engaged in the field, you’ll gain valuable insights into the cultural and systemic shifts needed to foster ethical, human-relevant research.

All attendees will receive a certificate of participation.

A CEUA/BIO-UFPR RECOMENDA FORTEMENTE que não sejam postados em nenhuma mídia social fotos e/ou vídeos com animais.
A recomendação tem como objetivo evitar conflito com segmentos extremistas da sociedade, contrários à pesquisa envolvendo animais de laboratório, e também, a possível construção de “fake news” com a obtenção dessas imagens/ vídeos.
