Webinar on the replacement of animal research, 14.10.2025
by Sakari Laaksonen 07 Oct '25

07 Oct '25

The next Finnish 3R Centre<https://fin3r.fi/en> webinar: Registration is open for the free webinar "Supporting Replacement in Academia" which will be presented by Barney Reed, RSPCA, UK Date: Tuesday, 14 October 2025, at 14:00 (EEST, in Helsinki) ABSTRACT In the UK, and in many other countries, more than half of all animal use for scientific purposes takes place within universities and medical schools, primarily in fundamental and applied research. There are particular barriers to changing current research practices in these settings. These include social and cultural issues relating to 'the way science is done', and established systems of funding, publishing and career progression which can incentivise or 'lock-in' certain behaviours. This presentation will discuss an ongoing RSPCA project exploring how these factors may impact upon the ability of scientists across the range of career levels to train in and adopt non-animal methods. Drawing on findings from in-depth semi-structured interviews with researchers using animals across UK universities, this presentation will highlight drivers of animal use and barriers and opportunities around the uptake and acceptance of non-animal methods in academic research. Individuals shared their insights, perspectives and concerns as they spoke candidly about the issues they faced (including knowledge, skills, and expertise; communities and networks; academic environment and pressures; access; and awareness and engagement) and the support they felt they, and those like them, would need. In examining these factors, the project aims to offer tailored recommendations to funders, regulators, professional and learned societies, journal publishers, Animal Welfare Bodies, individual institutions and others, for further stimulating and supporting the replacement of animal use in academia. Reference: McGlacken, R. & Reed, B. T. (2024). Supporting Replacement in Academia: Exploring barriers around the acceptance and uptake of non-animal methods in science in UK academia. RSPCA, Horsham, UK. Full report available at: https://tinyurl.com/SupportingReplacement2024 SPEAKER Barney is Senior Science and Policy Manager in the Animals in Science Department of the RSPCA. He works with individuals and organisations involved in the regulation, use and care of lab animals in the UK, EU and across the world to promote the fullest implementation of the 3Rs, and support the development and uptake of non-animal methodologies, good cultures of care within institutions, and effective systems of ethical review. He has served on the institutional Animal Welfare and Ethical Review Bodies (the UK equivalent of AWBs/AECs/IACUCs) of eight establishments across academia and industry, and been a member of numerous European Commission Expert Working Groups producing guidance on implementing Directive 2010/63/EU. Between 2016 and 2023, he was appointed to the UK national Animals in Science Committee. In October 2023 he was elected to the Governing Board of the International Council for Laboratory Animal Science (ICLAS).

Hei, (In English below) mietityttääkö tekijänoikeudet? Tiedätkö, miten voit hyödyntää erilaisia aineistoa opetuksessa ja tutkimuksessa? Milloin tarvitset luvan? Onko Kopioston kopiointiluvan sisältö tuttu? Osaatko käyttää CC-lisenssejä? Jos haluat saada vastauksia näihin ja moniin muihin kysymyksiin, osallistu tekijänoikeuskoulutuksiin. Tarjolla on sekä lyhyitä webinaareja että yksi pitempi kurssi. InnoWebinaarit (ei etukäteisilmoittautumista): Tekijänoikeus opinnäytetöissä Oletko tekemässä kandityötä, gradua, diplomityötä tai väitöskirjaa? Tai toimitko opinnäytetyön ohjaaja? Tiedätkö, miten tekijänoikeudet pitää huomioida opinnäytetyössä sitä tehdessä ja julkaistaessa? * Suomeksi <https://patio.oulu.fi/fi/tapahtumat/innowebinaari-2910-tekijanoikeus-opinna…> 29.10.2025 klo 14-15 * Englanniksi <https://patio.oulu.fi/en/events/innowebinar-611-english-copyright-theses> 6.11.2025 klo 10-11 Tekoäly ja tekijänoikeudet Teksti ja kuvat saavat tekijänoikeussuojaa. Mutta kuka tekijänoikeudet omistaa, jos teos on tehty tekoälyä hyödyntäen? Voinko käyttää tekoälysovelluksia hyödyksi tieteellisissä artikkeleissa, jos kustantaja vaatii selvitystä tekijänoikeuksien omistajasta? Voiko tekoälyohjelmaan syöttää tekijänoikeudella suojattua artikkeleita ja kuvia? * Suomeksi<https://patio.oulu.fi/fi/tapahtumat/innowebinaari-1311-tekoaly-ja-tekijanoi…> 13.11.2025 klo 10-11 * Englanniksi <https://patio.oulu.fi/en/events/innowebinar-1711-english-artificial-intelli…> 17.11.2025 klo 10-11 Pitempi kurssi (ilmoittaudu Pepissä, Oskussa tai sähköpostilla): Get to know copyrights<https://patio.oulu.fi/sites/default/files/2025-09/Get%20to%20know%20copyrig…> 5.11.2025 (yht. 5 h, 0.5 op, englanniksi, online) * Opettaja, tutkija, opiskelija: syvennä tietämystäsi tekijänoikeuksista - mitkä ovat oikeutesi ja milloin tarvitset luvan tekijänoikeuksien haltijalta? * Huom!

[cid:23a5f1c4-bd36-4324-9de9-a8b4af89608c] INFRAPLUS Open Call Free Provision of Mouse Embryonic Fibroblasts and Mouse Embryonic Stem Cells INFRAFRONTIER ERIC, along with its partners MRC Harwell, University of Oulu, and PHENOMIN-ICS, is pleased to announce the launch of an INFRAPLUS Open Call<https://www.infrafrontier.eu/infraplus/mouse-embryonic-fibroblasts-and-stem…> aimed at generating mutant embryonic fibroblasts and mouse embryonic stem cells. This initiative aims to support scientists in developing mutant cell models that, when scientifically appropriate, serve as alternative to animal models for relevant experimentation. It promotes the 3Rs principle (Replacement, Reduction, and Refinement) by minimising animal use whenever relevant cell models can be employed instead. Two expert services are offered through this Open Call: * Mouse Embryonic Fibroblasts (MEFs) Isolation: This service is designed to provide MEFs isolated from existing mouse lines. * Mouse Embryonic Stem Cells (mESC) Derivation: This service aims to provide mutant mESCs derived from existing mouse lines. Full details on both services and the Terms and Conditions for free-of-charge access are available HERE<https://www.infrafrontier.eu/infraplus/mouse-embryonic-fibroblasts-and-stem…>. Apply via the online forms provided on the website for each service, no later than 4 November 2025. These services are offered FREE OF CHARGE via the INFRAPLUS project funded by the European Union Research and Innovation programme Horizon Europe (Grant Agreement No. 101131669<https://www.infrafrontier.eu/infraplus/>). For any inquiry, please contact us<mailto:pavlovic@igbmc.fr,l.teboul@har.mrc.ac.uk,Anniina.Hiltunen@oulu.fi>. INFRAFRONTIER ERIC in collaboration with: [cid:bfa6561f-74dc-4767-a525-3d24efa8d7f3]

Arvoisa Kontinkankaan kampuksen väki, Tänään haudataan arkkiatri Risto Pelkonen. Hänen muistolleen kampuksella on suruliputus. Arkkiatri on korkein Suomessa lääkärille myönnettävä arvonimi. Arkkiatri Pelkonen oli suomalaisen lääketieteen ja terveydenhuollon merkittävimpiä vaikuttajia. Hänen kerrotaan sanoneen, että 'toivo on tieteessä ja taiteessa, tulevaisuus nuorten käsissä'. ************** Dear Kontinkangas Campus people, Today we honour the dead archiatre Risto Pelkonen. Archiatre is the highest honorary title, which a doctor can get in Finland. Regards, Anne Vainionpää Management assistant Faculty of Medicine
