TEDD supports 3R with ALTEX
ALTEX
TEDD Competence Centre recently joined ALTEX Edition as a member institution. Members may publish a Corner accompanied by their logo in ALTEX to inform the community of their current 3Rs related activities at no further cost. Example of Corner

The journal ALTEX – Alternatives to Animal Experimentation publishes open access academic articles on the development and implementation of alternatives to the use of animals for scientific purposes and informs on international developments in this field. ALTEX is the official organ of CAAT, CAAT-Europe, the Doerenkamp-Zbinden Chairs, EUSAAT and t4.

We invite TEDD members to submit their related 3R activities and news to info.tedd@zhaw.ch. The submission deadline is 2nd June 2019.
