Alternative methods in biomedical research: second call for tender reviewing methods in 5 new areas Featured

The JRC's EU Reference Laboratory for alternatives to animal testing (EURL ECVAM) has launched a second call for tender to review alternative methods and models being used for research in the areas of Cardiovascular diseases, Breast Cancer, Immunogenicity testing for advanced therapy medicinal products, Autoimmune diseases and Immune Oncology Models.


This new set of studies is aimed to continue the collection of successful non-animal procedures and techniques (e.g. in vitro, in silico) in 5 new areas of biomedical research, to broaden the knowledge on the possible benefits from the significant technological advances made in recent years in novel non-animal methods development, providing mechanistic information and modelling human-specific processes or tissues.
