Hildegard Doerenkamp, a lifelong animal lover, was active in supporting alternatives to animal testing since she first saw a televised interview with toxicology Professor Gerhard Zbinden in 1982. They combined their individual assets to form the Doerenkamp-Zbinden Foundation to support the 3Rs of alternatives (Reduction, Refinement, and Replacement) ...

Speakers: Franz Gruber (President, Doerenkamp-Zbinden Foundation), Marcel Leist (Konstanz), Thomas Hartung (Baltimore), Bass Blaauboer (Utrecht), Pierre Cosson (Geneva), Akbarsha Mohammad Abdulkader (Mahatma Gandhi-Doerenkamp Center, India).

The TEDD Annual Meeting 2020 is dedicated to cutting edge academic and industrial research. We focus on microphysiological systems (MPS) and its application in different fields, including research on the COVID-19 and the development of in vitro disease and infection models. The on-line event will not only provide presentations but also allow you to network. Each participant has an opportunity to matchmake and request virtual 1-1 meetings. Additionally, we provide the exhibitors with the possibility to present their services and take part in virtual exhibition sessions over the “lunch break”.
