3Rs
Scientists at the ICR are increasingly using non-invasive methods to measure the size of tumours in mice – allowing the same mouse to be assessed several times and reducing the overall numbers
Systematic reviews: Evidence from animal research is considered by researchers to be of the lowest quality in medical research.
There is a great need for valuable ex vivo models that allow for assessment of cartilage repair strategies to reduce the high number of animal experiments.

The Bernstein Center for Computational Neuroscience (BCCN) Goettingen aims at finding the cooperative dynamics and adaptivity in neuronal systems.
MouseAGE is opening a call for European researchers to establish their infrastructure needs in the area of ageing and age-related disorders at the preclinical stage with a view to coordinate efforts for applications for funding.
Over the last two years, representatives from the UK’s stroke research community have been working, in a collaboration led by the NC3Rs, to improve the welfare and increase the scientific value of rodent models of stroke.
Research published in Scientific Reports describes a new ultra lightweight system for recording neural activity in the brains of mice.
