ALTEX Edition
ALTEX Edition is a non-profit organization funded entirely by membership fees, sponsoring, donations, article processing charges, 3Rs relevant advertising, the sale of print versions of the journals ALTEX and TIERethik, and the publication of abstract books or proceedings of 3Rs related conferences in ALTEX Proceedings.
The English-language journals ALTEX and ALTEX Proceedings are made accessible online at no cost to promote alternatives to animal experimentation worldwide. The German-language journal TIERethik, which also publishes all articles online at no cost, highlights different aspects of the human-animal-relationship.
