By supporting the 3RsC, you support the development of many open-access resources for your staff and the entire research community. As these resources are not locked behind a paywall, they are easily and immediately accessible for everyone in the scientific community.
We create 3Rs resource pages (currently >30 published) on topics ranging from species-specific house & husbandry tips to extensive advice for implementing refined mouse handling and environmental health monitoring to translational digital biomarkers, microphysiological systems, and compassion fatigue resiliency. Our resource hubs are actionable, evidence-based and practical-focused to help create important 3Rs changes.
We coordinate and present several free webinars and conference(s) each year including NJABR’s 3Rs Seminar Series, for NC3Rs, PRIM&R, AALAS, ACLAM, MPS World Summit, 3D Tissue Summit etc.. We present on topics across all 3Rs from compassion fatigue to refined mouse handling to replacement of soiled bedding sentinels and microphysiological systems.
Our newsletter is a highly engaging resource for professionals dedicated to the 3Rs. Each month, we send several emails highlighting important 3Rs techniques and resources to help make the switch. Additionally, one a month we collate North American relevant resources from other 3Rs institutions. These mailings help research professionals easily stay abreast of relevant 3Rs related opportunities.
We also post regular small pieces of 3Rs content on LinkedIn and X. This includes key tips for enriching common species, reminders of upcoming conferences and webinars, and so much more.
Four of our initiatives are completely free to join. This allows us to facilitate impactful 3Rs opportunities between the most highly qualified individuals in the field, not just those at institutions that are current members.
