In the last session of the Finnish 3Rs Annual #Symposium 2024, we had an opportunity to discuss many interesting topics! Guillaume Pavlovic has presented Institut Clinique de la Souris's efforts in the standardization and improving of the laboratory animal genetic reporting.

Finally, our keynote speaker, Otto Kalliokoski from @UCPH_Research presented surprising data on #fraudulent animal studies. We have engaged in the discussion of how it impacts the research and how such occurrences could be prevented.

We are extending a big thank you to everyone for joining us, all of the speakers for the amazing inspiring presentations, all the sponsors for their support and our organizing committee and @UniOulu for a smooth and flawless meeting! Until next year! 👋 #fin3r #3Rs

The refinement session today was dedicated to a discussion on the #habituation, #handling, and #housing of rodents 🐭 #3Hsinitiative was a main topic for Megan Jackson from the @BristolUni.

Following, Julia Swan from the @UniEastFinland has shared insightful practices and protocols for handling #rodents, how it can impact their well-being, and the #research outcomes.

Today, the three short oral presentations were centered around good practices of animal experiments, showing a lot of useful findings! #fin3r #3Rs #finland #symposium #refinement #reduction #replacement

Wrapping up the session of great presentations! The morning was reserved for the #introduction of the #fin3r #replacement activities, followed by the presentations showing the transition from the use of #animals to #alternativemodels in research!

First, Andreas Romaine from the University of Oslo presented his work on #cardiacfibrosis, followed by Anna Dowbaj from @mpicbg, sharing lessons from alternatives in liver research. Thank you for the very important and interesting talks! #fin3r #replacement #refinement #reduction

The Finnish #3Rs Annual #Symposium kicked off yesterday! After having the first day reserved for the practical #workshops, today was dedicated to scientific talks! First for the day was Dario Greco, @TampereUni discussing integrated approaches in #toxicology.

Following, Daniel Persson from the @helsinkiuni presented his research focused on anesthetic influence on cerebrospinal fluids in #rodents. The poster session was finalized by inspiring short oral presentations from prospective researchers from @TampereUni and the @UniOulu.

To close the day, we had the honor to hear @UZH_en's Thorsten Buch and his experience regarding the #breeding of #laboratoryanimals! Tomorrow, more exciting presentations are coming, stay tuned! #fin3r #finland #refinement #replacement #reduction
