NC3Rs
National Centre for the replacement, refinement, and reduction of animals in research (uk)
New approach methodologies (NAMs) are innovative technologies used to assess the safety of drugs and chemicals without relying on traditional animal testing. NAMs are becoming essential tools for more human-relevant hazard and risk assessment, helping to improve safety science while reducing the use of animals in toxicity testing. Explore our NAMs resources, activities, and the NC3Rs NAMs Network below.
