The 3R online seminar series ‘Alternatives to animal use in research and education – Refine, Reduce & Replace’ (WS 25/26) will take place again this year. Sixteen outstanding scientists will provide a broad overview of the wide range of topics in the field of 3R.

Das «One Health»-Konzept ist ein ganzheitlicher Ansatz, um die Gesundheit von Menschen, Tieren und Umwelt zu verbessern und nachhaltig zu schützen. Es erkennt an, dass die Gesundheit von Mensch, Tier und Umwelt eng miteinander verknüpft ist. Wir präsentieren Fallstudien aus interdisziplinären Forschungsinitiativen, die den «One Health»-Ansatz unterstützen, diskutieren die wissenschaftlichen Herausforderungen bei der Umsetzung des Konzeptes und stellen neue Ansätze zur Risikobewertung biologischer und chemischer Stressoren vor.

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), also known as “forever chemicals”, are a large group of industrial compounds that are persistent and can accumulate in the environment, the food chain and humans. The conference brings together national and international scientists and risk assessors to exchange current scientific knowledge on PFAS and to discuss challenges and advances in human health risk assessment ...
