AWI Launches Revamped Refinement Database
AWI is excited to announce the 25th anniversary relaunch of our Refinement Database, which has been updated and modernized and can now be accessed via a brand-new website: refinementdatabase.org. This database contains a vast array of curated scientific articles, books, and other publications related to improving or safeguarding the welfare of animals used in research and testing. The database is updated every four months, and users can apply various search filters, such as animal type and topic, to easily locate information on the current best welfare practices most relevant to their area of interest.
