The World Congress provides a unique forum to discuss the importance of ethical issues in animal studies in the 21st century. The development and improvement of the 3R-relevant research methods clearly show the commitment of the scientific community to provide new science of a higher quality. This approach is not only consistent with the human and ethical principles, but should also cope with animal rights. The implementation of the 3Rs principles has become an integral part of innovation and research. Modern high-quality research is intended to create an increased understanding and confidence in the ethical approaches in today’s society.

The theme of this year’s conference was “Human Science in the 21 st Century”.
