Welcome to the University of Southampton Animal Welfare and Ethical Review Body (AWERB) website. The AWERB is a local committee that acts to ensure all animals used in research and teaching are carefully considered and justified; that the 3Rs (Replacement, Reduction and Refinement) are fully implemented; and that animals are housed and cared for according to current good practice.
