Bf3R Seminars
The Bf3R regularly organises seminars on current scientific issues from various fields. The aim is to cover a broad range of topics and to show interfaces to the 3R principle of scientific animal welfare (Replace, Reduce, Refine). Renowned scientists from the respective research fields are invited as guest speakers for the seminars.
All information on the next Bf3R seminars are available here:
