European Parliament has enacted the Directive 2010/63 on the protection of animals used in scientific experiments on the 8th September 2010, revisioning the Directive 86/609. This volume collects the contributions presented at a Course entitled “La nuova Direttiva europea sulla sperimentazione animale: aspetti teorici, normativi e applicativi” organized by the Istituto Superiore di Sanità on May 26-27, 2011 on the topic of the Directive 2010/63. In particular, following the organization of the course, firstly itemized description of normative is presented, with emphasis on the European scenario and its impact on the Italian legislation. Then, the ethical aspects, through the issue regarding non-human primate use, the theme of Animal Welfare Bodies and the considerations by animalist point of view, are dealt in. The second part of the present volume focused on “3R” concept (Replacement, Reduction, Refinement), with papers on alternative methods, refinement procedures and reduction possibilities. Finally, a particular attention to new aspects introduced by the Directive 2010/63 such as the regulation on the use of transgenic mice, the innovation of severity criteria, is given.
