Animal Welfare and Experimentation Committee
The Animal Experimentation and Welfare Committee’s mission is to channel all the information related to animal experimentation in the widest possible sense, which may be useful for SENC members, both students and researchers in training or senior, and to promote actions that in value in front of the society the experimentation with animals. The Committee is particularly interested in having the participation of the SENC members in this task, as information and / or proposing joint activities, as well as actively collaborating in their development.
