Focus and facts on the 3Rs
Focus on the 3Rs is a digital letter to your inbox, where we go deeper into the three different Rs. We aim to share good examples from Swedish organisations and we highlight research within the 3Rs.
Focus on the 3Rs
Focus on the 3Rs is a digital letter where we focus on the 3Rs as a complement to our news and articles at the website. Every issue has a special theme, where we share good examples and present new research and development.
Focus on the 3Rs is aimed to researchers, staff at an animal facility or others who encounter animals in research or animal-free research.

Films
We produce short pedagogic films about how different models can be used to replace and reduce animal experimentation.
We have made a general film about replacement of animal experimentation:
Cell models
In this film we explain how advanced cell models are used to replace and reduce animal experimentation:
Computer models
Two films are about computer models and how they can be used to replace and reduce animal testing. The second film explains how to trust the result from these kind of models when we use them to replace and reduce animal experimentation.
Impact stories of replacement
We have met Maria Karlgren in the lab at Uppsala University. She explains how her research group has replaced certain animal experiments in their drug delivery studies.
