FRAME carries out a wide range of projects to help us research and develop new and more effective methods in its mission to find alternatives to animal testing.

EPISKIN, world leader in tissue engineering, offers Human Reconstructed Tissues to the global scientific community - academic and industry - to support research and development activities in Safety and Efficacy

The ZEBET database is mainly designed to support the examination of the imperative nature of animal experiments by providing information on possible alternative methods. 

Sabre offers ten recommendations and a strategy.They define these reccomendations (the 10Rs+) as RESPOND, REPLICATE, REGISTER, REPORT, RECORD, REVIEW, REGULATE, REAPPRAISE, RATIONALISE, REINVENT, REPRESENT. A word document with further information on the 10Rs+ (in a table) is available to download at the bottom of the page.

Animal Free Research UK funds research that directly impacts the replacement of animals in biomedical research. Their aim is the replacement of animals in fundamental biomedical research as well as proving that valuable human-relevant science can take place with the use of non-animal methods.

The Guide has specifically been developed to support untrained database users in finding high quality information on relevant alternative strategies and methods to animal experiments from the wide range of sources available on the web. The Guide provides examples of search procedures, suggested search terms and user guidance.  Target users are scientists, national authorities involved in animal protection and ethical committees verifying that all possible alternatives have been considered before conducting animal experiments.

This section contains a selection of resources highlighting the alternatives to using animals in research, testing and teaching.

Journal of Immunology Research is a peer-reviewed, open acess journal that provides a platform for scientists and clinicians working in different areas of immunology and therapy. The journal publishes research articles, review articles, as well as clinical studies related to classical immunology, molecular immunology, clinical immunology, cancer immunology, transplantation immunology, immune pathology, immunodeficiency, autoimmune diseases, immune disorders, and immunotherapy.

Cancer Immunology Research publishes outstanding original articles reporting major advances in cancer immunology that span the discipline from basic investigations in host-tumor interactions to developmental therapeutics in model systems, early translational studies in patients, and late-stage clinical trials. The journal disseminates knowledge of immunology to the cancer research community, catalyzing cross-disciplinary work that yields a deeper understanding of the host-tumor relationship, more potent cancer treatments, and improved clinical outcomes.

The Cambridge Immunology Network is designed to showcase and enhance the University of Cambridge's position as a leading international centre for research and teaching in immunology
