As part of the College's commitment to the Concordat on Openness, we are now starting to publish non-technical summaries of our Home Office project licences on the website. These summaries aim to show the scope of the work being carried out at the College, as well as steps being taken to minimise harms to the animals and to use alternatives.

This will be an ongoing project.
