No dia 18 de Setembro a Universidade de Vrije, em Bruxelas, realizará o "TECHNOLOGY DAY", onde se proporão temas de grande importância como as alternativas "3R ", ou seja novas metodologias para substituição (replace), redução e refinamento dos testes em animais.
A proposta é de aproximar as indústrias do mundo acadêmico e oferecer colaborações entre as partes. A oportunidade é excelente.
Quem me escreve é a Prof.a Vera Rogiers, responsável pela organização do curso.
O site para inscrições e contatos é:
www.vub.ac.be/technologytransfer
Abaixo segue os temas, palestrantes e horários:
New scientific impulses towards
3R Alternatives - Methods to replace,
reduce and refine animal use
