Stress Awareness Month is upon us, prompting us to prioritize our well-being! Let's focus on stress management and self-care strategies tailored specifically for the laboratory animal research community. Explore the insightful journal "Laboratory Animal Welfare Meets Human Welfare," featuring Dr. Megan LaFollette, Executive Director of the 3Rs Collaborative (3RsC). Dive into the article here: https://ow.ly/sr3k50R8jSt Together, let's conquer stress and uphold our commitment to a positive impact in biomedical research! #StressAwarenessMonth #LabAnimalProfessionals #Wellbeing #SelfCare

See below details of the launch of the first call under the #HorizonEurope Animal Health and Welfare Partnership. This is the second Partnership that Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine is supporting following the launch of the Agroecology Partnership recently. EUPAHW Great opportunities here for research in technologies for prevention, detection and management of animal health and welfare, plus social economic or ethical studies on pathogens or welfare and their impact on farmers and others in the food chain.

FASEB's comments to The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals include several recommendations across 3️⃣ categories: animal welfare and care, guide interpretation and enforcement, and consensus committee composition and stakeholder engagement.

It’s important to have the right tools to hit the bullseye with our goals. Experts at #AAA24 will discuss artificial intelligence's role in animal health, advancements in animal welfare and sustainability, and more! Time is running out to register: https://bit.ly/AAA24

Thanks to the WSAVA Reproduction Control Committe, we now have this reviewed tool to address a situation that is beeing present in any country and region. 📢 The new WSAVA Guidelines for the Control of Reproduction in Dogs and Cats are now available! The Guidelines have been prepared by the Reproduction Control Committee (RCC) and published in the Journal of Small Animal Practice, the WSAVA’s official scientific journal. They aim to help WSAVA members make science-based choices for the management of reproduction in their patients, while safeguarding animal welfare and supporting the human-companion animal bond. Included are discussions of current practice, together with explanations of newer approaches, both surgical and non-surgical. They also explore the health benefits and drawbacks of each method and explore ethical questions

Join our webinar as we discuss how we partner with our customers to establish the right balance between animal supply, utilization, and identification techniques, while also focusing on animal welfare and the 3R principles of reduction, replacement, and refinement.

New Guidelines for the Control of Reproduction in Dogs and Cats from the WSAVA (World Small Animal Veterinary Association). When veterinarians and dog owners decide the best care plan for any individual dog, there are many things to consider.

The European Partnership on Animal Health and Welfare announced the 1st co-funded call for transnational research projects. The purpose is to support the future of the health and welfare of terrestrial and aquatic animals through research and innovation and the advancement of fundamental and socio-economic science. This call aims to support collaborative research and proposals must include partners from three countries listed in the call documentation. Although, partners from other countries, or industry, are able to join proposals if they are able to provide their own funding. Deadline for submission of pre-proposals: 8th July 2024

Understanding, preventing and alleviating pain and distress is a key part of the role of many animal care staff. Our “Pain and distress in laboratory animals” course, running online this November, provides detailed information on evaluating and managing pain in rodents, alongside discussions about other animals, and teaches attendees how to evaluate severity and how to use refinement to minimise welfare concerns. Enrol today either as a single #CPD course or as part of a Level 6 Diploma: https://lnkd.in/eAPhZHdD #AnimalScience #AnimalTechnology
