FOCUS ON FISH
29 February 2024
Millions of fishes are used in research and testing globally each year, and there is now widening recognition of the need to minimise harms and improve welfare. This RSPCA-led online event, which is now in its fourth year, brings together experts to share cutting-edge knowledge and approaches to refining fish care and use, enhancing animal welfare, reproducibility and translatability.
