Experts point to five alternatives for scientific testing on animals

The question of non-animal methods for biomedical research was recently featured in Jornal de Notícias, one of the main newspapers in Portugal. Under the headline "Specialists indicate five alternatives for scientific tests in animals", the feature refers to 3RKC and gives voice to i3S researcher Daniel Ferreira, who explains his work on stomach-on-a-chip that was awarded with the NC3Rs prize in 2022.
