👽🚨 What if extraterrestrial aliens experimented on humans, but strictly followed the 3Rs (Replace, Reduce, Refine)? In our new publication, we asked animal research professionals to imagine exactly that through a thought experiment: doi.org/10.1007/s10806… @ibmbch @nrp_79

🚨 Global BioXPhi Research Initiative 🚨 Assessing Replicability and Cross-Cultural Generalisability of Experimental Philosophical Bioethics (@bioxphi) studies! Exciting initiative led by Ivar Hannikainen (@moralsciencelab) and @briandavidearp (@NUS_CBmE) mscilab.com/globalbioxphi/

Last week, the @ibmbch - University of Basel hosted the 2025 @bioxphi Summit, in collaboration with @NUS_CBmE and @ethicsinthenews. It was great to engage with cutting-edge Bioethics research and to present preliminary results from our @nrp_79 study on animal research dilemmas.

Excited for two days of experimental philosophical bioethics in Basel, Switzerland ☺️

Call for submissions! Join us in Basel for the 2025 Basel-Oxford-NUS Experimental Bioethics -- BioXPhi -- Summit | Hosted at the Institute for Biomedical Ethics | University of Basel - JUNE 25-27, 2025. Co-sponsored @NUS_CBmE @ethicsinthenews buff.ly/4flBPWA

📣 New in #animalethics: Drs. Persson, @RodriguezP_Chri, Louis-Maerten, Müller, and Shaw of @ibmbch explore the ethics of killing in animal research and the #3Rs. 🧵 #AnimalWelfare #WelfareWednesday link.springer.com/article/10.100…

🔍 NEW STUDY clarifies the 3Rs principles (Replacement, Reduction, Refinement) in animal experimentation. Authors propose revised definitions to address limitations and inconsistencies in current practices, enhancing ethical research. Read more here: 🔗 ow.ly/RYIb50TVmIR

Clarifying the 3Rs 💡 @Edwin_Vethics, @RodriguezP_Chri, & @ibmbch colleagues discuss the inconsistencies & imprecision of the #3Rs and provide specific recommendations for revising them, with a focus on absolute replacement. #sciencetwitter cambridge.org/core/journals/…

Are you a researcher who is currently or has previously been involved in animal research in Switzerland? The @nrp_79 project & @RodriguezP_Chri would like to better understand Swiss based researcher's attitudes to animal research. Take the 15min survey: tinyurl.com/2smy2377

Switzerland will (finally) join the rest of Europe and legalise egg donation, a step further in medically assisted reproduction. What are the important issues to keep in mind when drafting the new legal rules? At @ibmbch we do research on this 👇👇journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/09…

On Thursday, I will be discussing the ethics of killing animals in research at the @Swiss3RCC Cookie Catch Up, as part of our @nrp_79 project EXPLOR3R - @ibmbch. Join us online!

@Edwin_Vethics at #eursafe2024 on how to improve the review process of animal research proposals - @ibmbch @nrp_79 @EurSafe_Ethics

A new paper by @RodriguezP_Chri, Shaw, @briandavidearp, Elger, & Persson investigated "3R dilemmas in animal research” using experimental bioethics, as well as “cases of speciesism in 3R decision-making." 3/ link.springer.com/article/10.100…

Many thanks to the #eursafe2024 organizers for the opportunity to share our work, to the audience for their input, and to my co-authors! @ibmbch - @nrp_79

How can #bioxphi shed light on sacrificial dilemmas in animal research? In our new paper, we present a novel approach and offer a practical template. Swiss-based study already underway! Thanks to @ibmbch, @bioxphi Lab, and my co-authors. 🔗 link.springer.com/article/10.100…
