This webinar examines the evolving landscape of NAMs definitions and introduces a proposed harmonized\, goal-oriented definition applicable to chemicals\, pharmaceuticals\, and basic research. \nParticipants will explore how this harmonized definition can be applied to determine whether specific technologies qualify as NAMs\, and how these approaches relate to—but remain distinct from—the 3Rs principles. The webinar will also introduce the concept of Refinement-Enabling Innovations (REIs) and examine categories of technologies that fall outside the proposed NAMs framework\, including traditional in vivo models and certain refinement techniques. \nRegister for additional free live webinars and available webinar replays. \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n Register For This Webinar\n \n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n First Name\n \n \n \n \n \n Last Name\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n Email Address\n \n \n \n \n \n Organization\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n Please share your question for the presenter(s) here:\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n May we contact you about new CITI Program content and services after the webinar?\n \n \n \n \n Yes\n \n \n \n No\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n Register Now\n \n\n \n Information you provide when registering will be shared with the account owner and host and can be used and shared by them in accordance with their Terms and Privacy Policy.

Through discussion and examples\, this presentation will discuss the concept of exemptions and the role they play in regulated and unregulated research. This presentation will also point out flexibilities in applying the exemption criteria that are often overlooked. \nRegister for additional free live webinars and available webinar replays. \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n Register For This Webinar\n \n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n First Name\n \n \n \n \n \n Last Name\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n Email Address\n \n \n \n \n \n Organization\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n Please share your question for the presenter(s) here:\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n May we contact you about new CITI Program content and services after the webinar?\n \n \n \n \n Yes\n \n \n \n No\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n Register Now\n \n\n \n Information you provide when registering will be shared with the account owner and host and can be used and shared by them in accordance with their Terms and Privacy Policy.

We will first examine why the rule was issued\, focusing on its national security and policy foundations\, and then outline its key requirements\, covered data\, and institutional implications. Determining applicability and organizational responsibilities requires a careful inventory of data. Attendees will gain both a primer on the rule itself and perspective on how it signals broader regulatory shifts in data governance\, research\, and compliance. \nRegister for additional free live webinars and available webinar replays. \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n Register For This Webinar\n \n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n First Name\n \n \n \n \n \n Last Name\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n Email Address\n \n \n \n \n \n Organization\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n Please share your question for the presenter(s) here:\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n May we contact you about new CITI Program content and services after the webinar?\n \n \n \n \n Yes\n \n \n \n No\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n Register Now\n \n\n \n Information you provide when registering will be shared with the account owner and host and can be used and shared by them in accordance with their Terms and Privacy Policy.

It poses risks to staff well-being and research quality. A Culture of Care is built on four pillars: strong science\, animal welfare\, human well-being\, and communication. Human well-being\, as one pillar\, focuses on empathetic support to address challenges like compassion fatigue. Strategies include self-care\, mindfulness\, and professional development\, alongside institutional measures like debriefing sessions\, leadership training\, and flexible scheduling. Tools such as ProQOL assessments and resiliency frameworks\, supported by the University of Washington’s D2C and the 3Rs Collaborative\, may help mitigate its impact. \nRegister for additional free live webinars and available webinar replays. \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n Register For This Webinar\n \n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n First Name\n \n \n \n \n \n Last Name\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n Email Address\n \n \n \n \n \n Organization\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n Please share your question for the presenter(s) here:\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n May we contact you about new CITI Program content and services after the webinar?\n \n \n \n \n Yes\n \n \n \n No\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n Register Now\n \n\n \n Information you provide when registering will be shared with the account owner and host and can be used and shared by them in accordance with their Terms and Privacy Policy.
