Explore databases and strategies to identify literature to inform the 3Rs of animal welfare in research–replacement, refinement and reduction. Develop and document a sample search of at least two databases and practice drafting a narrative summarizing literature on possible alternatives, supporting the species and number of animals involved, and describing pain minimization or management.

Class objectives:

• Become familiar with animal species and research procedure search strategies in PubMed and beyond
• Efficiently develop and document the required alternatives literature search for replacement, refinement, and reduction of pain or distress in animal research subjects.
