Togeth 3R (together) Consortium: Replace reduce refine

Europe is home to a vibrant 3Rs community with a number of organisations who fund or promote science and technology developments that lead to opportunities to replace, reduce and refine the use of animals in research. Togeth3R is a consortium of eight 3Rs centres from Belgium, Denmark, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Sweden, Switzerland and the UK.

Webinar recordings

Members of the group have been collaborating since 2020 to host webinar series showcasing 3Rs research and innovation across Europe.
