The symposium is suitable for all researchers within the field of experimental animal studies and clinicians who have an interest in translational medicine. You can be new within a research area as well as experienced within your own research field. You will obtain the valuable information concerning how to move forward performing SR’s and benefit from a fruitful debate amongst leading groups within this area of science. In addition the symposium will be very relevant for members of the national committee and animal welfare bodies.
