GUIDANCE FOR SPONSORS AND EXHIBITORS INTRODUCTION will provide a moment of disclosure and update on alternative methods to the use of animals, based on the concept of the 3Rs (reduction, refinement and replacement). This event will be a unique moment in Latin America for the training of groups of studies on the subject, searching and contacting companies for the private funding of research, encouraging technological development, and an opportunity for the integration of universities with the society, in response to a problem increasingly required by the society: the use of animals in science and industrial testing. The event will be international in scope, providing researchers with the dissemination of their research and to students and teachers the learning of new teaching techniques. In addition to the academic nature, the Congress aims for the spirit of innovation and integration with the industrial sector, ensuring that the academic knowledge is applied in society. Contribute to this moment of meeting and innovation in Latin America. Collaborate with COLAMA and with the participation of students and young researchers. Science, Industry and society in favor of Alternative Methods to the Use of Animals. Society, Animals and the Country are grateful with the advances of Alternative Methods.
