61st LASA annual conference

This year, the Laboratory Animal Science Association (LASA) annual conference will be held in the West Midlands. Sessions include animal care and husbandry, animal welfare and innovations in animal science and the 3Rs. 

Presentation abstracts (NC3Rs bursaries available)

We are sponsoring selected abstracts for the 'Innovations in the 3Rs and Animal Science' section. Bursaries will be awarded for all speakers selected for the 3Rs session, with registration costs, one night of accommodation and reasonable travel costs typically covered. Abstract submissions from early career researchers including PhD students are particularly welcome. 

Poster abstracts

LASA are inviting abstract submissions for poster presentation under the theme: 'Husbandry, technical, welfare and care refinements - little steps can make a big difference in animal and staff wellbeing'. Animal technicians are particularly encouraged to present their work, including preliminary, pilot and/or ongoing current studies. There will be the option to provide a three-minute poster talk (elevator pitch style) at the 'Care, Welfare and Management' session.
