Ethical considerations on the use of animals in biomedical research
Use of animal in research is a topic of interest for the whole society. The 3Rs Hub and Imperial Digital Education department created an e-learning course to help students understanding the ethic and regulation behind the use of animal models in scientific research.
Uderstanding and applying Non-Animal Methods (NAMs) to research
Use of alternative models is the ultimate goal in every field of science. However, not always is possible to recapitulate a complex organism in a dish. The 3RsHub created an e-learning course to help scientists at any stage of their career improve their understanding of alternative methods and when is possible to use them.
Learning about the 3Rs
Introduction to the 3Rs
A video lecture to introduce researchers and students to the 3Rs principle and how to perform good animal science.
Experimental Design
An on-line course run once a year for Imperial Staff and Student to learn the theory and practice behind experimental design and statistical analyses in animal research.
Lab Animal School
An on-line course run once a year for Imperial Staff and Student to learn how to write about animal and 3Rs studies for academic purposes (publishing or grant applications).
