Calling all early-career researchers! Are you ready to amplify the impact of your research in the transition to animal-free innovation? Join us for the Young TPI Impact Workshop on October 31st in Utrecht for a hands-on experience that will help you take your research further than ever! In this workshop, we’ll dive into topics such as overcoming animal bias in publishing, transforming research into products and services, and communicating your findings to any audience.

COLAAB member Catharine E. Krebs of the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine will present a poster entitled "Illuminating and addressing animal methods bias" in the Reception and Poster Session II.

COLAAB member Bianca Marigliani of Human Society International and the Animal-Free Safety Assessment Collaboration will give a talk on the Author Guide for Addressing Animal Methods Bias in Publishing.

COLAAB members will discuss ongoing work in the Animal Methods Bias session.

• Catharine E. Krebs: “Animal methods bias and the COLAAB-orative effort to overcome it”
• Ignacio Tripodi: “Inspecting the scientific literature for signs of animal methods bias”
• Melanie Ort: “Animal methods bias in education”
• Celean Camp: “Reviewer guidelines and trainings to mitigate animal methods bias”
• Emily R. Trunnell: “Findings of a workshop to explore animal methods bias in funding”

This COLAAB hosted workshop aims to gather broad stakeholder perspectives on animal methods bias in the peer review of grant applications, including current evidence and evidence needs, its potential impact on research and researchers' careers, and potential solutions.

Join members of the COLAAB at this virtual, interactive event to present our Author Guide for Addressing Animal Methods Bias in Publishing. This guide is geared toward researchers who use nonanimal methods to help them avoid and respond to manuscript reviewer requests for animal experiments.
