Working with laboratory animals in the Netherlands requires certification according to Article 9 of the Dutch law on Laboratory Animals. This course provides essential information on setting up experiments with laboratory animals, regulatory aspects and handling of animals.
Important!: Students can apply for this course only when they need it for their research project. Students who fail to pass the exam block the possibility of working with laboratory animals, which may have negative consequences for their research project!
