Reproduction and developmental toxicology without animal experiments: Where do we stand with science? Featured

InVitro+Jobs regularly presents scientists and their innovative research. The focus is on newly developed methods, their evaluation as well as an outlook, which animal experimental approaches according to the 3R principles (reduce, refine, replace) can be reduced and preferably replaced.

This time we present the state of development in reproductive and developmental toxicology.

This time we do not present a single group as usual because research questions that have been answered with countless animals so far are too wide-ranging. The animals cannot be replaced by separate methods. Lots of groups are working on individual new methods. Conclusion: A replacement of animal experiments can only succeed if many individual methods are integrated in a test strategy.
