Netherlands Cancer Institute

Summer School

The ESLAV-ECLAM Summer School will be organized from 19 to 21 June 2024 at the Netherlands Cancer Institute in close collaboration with the Netherlands Institute for Neuroscience.

The 2024 ESLAV-ECLAM Summer School is focused on animal facility management. The topics cover old and new challenges that facility managers face, such as environmental impact of the activities, personnel management and compassion fatigue, communication to layman as well as policymakers, data management and business development.

Speakers from both Europe and the US will guide workshops and provide scenarios, to maximize the interactive sessions.

We are confident that all the speakers would inspire attendees with ideas that can be put into practice at different scale levels in animal facilities.

We are looking forward to welcoming you in Amsterdam!
