We are entering a time of uncertainty marked by potential deregulation and evolving challenges to meeting the needs of animals in research and discovery. Despite these changes, our responsibility to the animals in our care remains unchanged. Public concern over animal research continues to grow, and both the broader community and those within the research field—including scientists, veterinarians, and other stakeholders—seek clear assurance that research is conducted ethically. This includes adherence to the 3Rs, harm-benefit analysis, bioethical principles, and a thoughtful balance between scientific goals and social responsibility.

Learning Objectives:

  • Explore strategies for addressing practical and ethical considerations and developing values-based solutions during the review of animal use protocols
  • Evaluate the value of engaging diverse stakeholders in decisions about the ethical use of animals in research
  • Discuss approaches for fostering a lasting commitment to bioethical principles and humane animal care within research programs
