Participants should have a basic understanding of analytical chemistry. It is open for both PARC members and non-members, although priority will be given to PARC members.

This is a satellite conference to the 13th World Congress on Alternatives and Animal Use in the Life Sciences. The conference will focus on addressing education through the use of humane, innovative learning tools and alternatives to animal experiments. Abstract submission for oral presentations is now open. Speakers are invited for standard (15 min) and lightning (5 min) presentations.

Abstract submission deadline: Sun 20th July, 2025.

This congress is a significant international event that focuses on advancing the field of alternatives to animal testing in research and education. It provides a platform for scientists, researchers, policymakers, and other stakeholders to exchange knowledge, share best practices, and discuss the latest developments in the field. The theme of this edition will be “3Rs Integrating 3 Worlds: Human, Animal and Environmental Health.”

Abstract submission deadline: 24/02/2025

The conference will feature cutting-edge sessions on topics such as analytical chemistry in biological monitoring, emerging biomarkers, biological limit values, major EU and international studies, and innovations in biomonitoring integrated with omics sciences.

This year's congress will focus on “Toxicology addresses Society’s real-life risks for sustainable health and well-being”. The programme will focus on emerging technologies and methodologies in toxicology will be highlighted, while fostering discussions on public health safety and environmental sustainability. Opportunities for young scientists to showcase their work will be provided through oral and poster presentations.

Deadline for Abstract Submission: 31/03/2025.

EUROoCS is hosting the third EUROoCS Summer School together with the 3R-Center Tübingen. The training course features both lectures and laboratory hands-on sessions. Participants will explore the fundamental concepts and principles of Organ-on-Chip technology in an interdisciplinary setting. The Summer School is designed for M.Sc., MD, and PhD students who are beginning their research in this exciting field, as well as professionals from academia or industry seeking to gain foundational knowledge and practical lab experience.

The fourth annual Galleria mellonella workshop will include networking and discussion of methods, models and husbandry techniques. 

Attendees are invited to present their Galleria mellonella research and related research techniques. There will also be a poster session to broaden knowledge sharing in the field, this will include a poster prize award.
