Laboratory Animal Science, Three Rs, Behavioural Neuroscience, Good Research Practice, Reproducibility - Uni Helsinki 🇫🇮🇪🇪 https://www.cost-teatime.org/ https://fin3r.fi/en
@cost-teatime.bsky.social has been working to raise awareness on how we monitor lab animals, advancing welfare & research reproducibility with home-cage monitoring.
Read the story of an Action that has excelled at building an open knowledge base & empowering ECRs: www.cost.eu/long-read-te...
At the end of our Action, we have compiled a short movie emphasizing major advantages HCM systems offer for animal research and its translatability, and showing some actual videos from the labs.

The 3Rs are widely accepted in science and politics. However, in practice, the implementation of 3R methods is sometimes difficult.

Women make up only 16% of corresponding authors who submit to Nature, a new Springer Nature analysis revealed. This is not enough - there are 30-40% #womeninSTEM
We want to change it, through targeted editorial policies & outreach. But change will take everyone!

Russia just killed dozens of Ukrainians in a missile strike on Palm Sunday, a day after Trump’s envoy Steve Witkoff met Putin, shook hands and posed for cameras. Witkoff visited an Orthodox Christian cathedral. Today church-goers were targeted.

This is what “partial ceasefire” in the sphere of energy looks like in reality: #Russia may target #Ukraine’s power plants less frequently — but has doubled down on killing Ukrainians, including children. A week ago, it struck Kryvyi Rih; this time, it’s Sumy.
13.04.2025 13:03 — 👍 81 🔁 31 💬 4 📌 1This morning, Russian cruelty struck again, killing men, women and children in the city of Sumy.
A barbaric attack, made even more vile as people gathered peacefully to celebrate Palm Sunday.
Once again, there are casualties and injuries from a Russian strike.Children have been killed.
Another blow to the psyche of an entire nation living in a constant state of tension& pain —every time our people are killed
Today,many are crying,feeling fear,anger,exhaustion.Today, I have no words left
Ukrainian military intelligence has identified the Russian army brigades that launched ballistic missiles at Sumy
The strike with 2 Iskander-M ballistic missiles was carried out by Russian forces from the 112th and 448th missile brigades, according to Kyrylo Budanov,head of the Defence Intelligence
