Forscher in der Schweiz und darüber hinaus treiben sowohl die Wissenschaft als auch das 3R-Prinzip kontinuierlich voran. Mit diesen Fortschritten gehen neue Techniken, Richtlinien für den Umgang mit Tieren und tierversuchsfreien Modellen sowie politische Leitfäden einher , die eine Brücke zwischen Wissenschaft und Politik schlagen. Hier finden Sie praktische Ressourcen zur Unterstützung Ihrer Arbeit – ganz gleich, ob Sie forschen, für den Tierschutz sorgen oder politische Entscheidungen mitgestalten.
