From the organizers:

"Join Prof Emma Robinson and Dr Nikki Osborne for this FREE responsible research webinar "Introducing the 3Hs initiative, a framework to improve the wellbeing of rodents in research". During this session Emma (Professor of Psychopharmacology at the University of Bristol) will give an overview of the 3H's initiative and discuss how applying the principles of this framework can improve the lives of laboratory rodents. She will also answer any questions the audience may have. Attend this webinar to learn about: 

- the negative impacts of conventional management and handling methods on welfare and scientific outcomes​; 

- how simple changes to housing can provide more natural environments without inhibiting scientific studies; 

- how habituation and positive reinforcement can facilitate more positive affective associations and mitigate the negative impacts of aversive procedures​; 

- details of further information and useful resources.
