This conference will be valuable to anyone interested in the place of ethics in science. Animal-based scientists, including researchers, teachers, and students, will find it particularly relevant, as will all others concerned about animal welfare, emerging environmental pressures as they affect animal welfare, the effectiveness of animal ethics committees, and the promotion of humane practices in the use of animals in science.
