This year, Be Open About Animal Research Day 2022 (#BOARD22), took place on the last day of the FELASA Congress (16 June). More than 150 institutions across six continents supported the campaign as partners. This included producing statements of support, which highlighted the need to be open and transparent about the use of animals in research.
