The 12Rs Framework: Enabling High-quality Humane Research Involving Animals
In this episode of Listen In, see how emerging and global challenges of conducting ethical animal research have led to the 12Rs Framework to guide humane experimental techniques in animal studies and other research areas.
The Principles of Humane Experimental Technique, the 3Rs (Replacement, Refinement, and Reduction), have been the mainstay of humane research involving animals for over fifty years.
However, it is becoming increasingly apparent that to enable high-quality ethical and humane science involving animals, other ethical constructs and issues, for example, research culture, reproducibility, reliability, and responsibility, must also be considered.
The 12Rs Framework brings these different constructs together in a single visual framework. Furthermore, it applies to all areas of scientific research, not just research involving animals.
