OSERA Announces Launch of New Website

COLUMBUS, OH (June 6, 2011) — The Ohio Scientific Education & Research Association (OSERA), a nonprofit biomedical research advocacy organization, is proud to announce the launch of its new Website, osera.org.

The new site embodies OSERA’s commitment to the growing needs of its members, the biomedical research community, educators, students and the public. Features include:

  • Extensive information to educate and inform visitors about the importance of biomedical research, including the humane care and use of animals
  • Details about science education programs nationwide, including speakers’ bureaus, science fairs, conferences and workshops for research facilities, students, educators and the general public
  • A compilation of educational materials and public outreach resources — many of which are free — from related organizations throughout the country

“Osera.org will become a great resource for local members of the biomedical research community as well as teachers and students across Ohio and the United States,” said Julie Waldo, OSERA Interim Director. “The new site is easy to use and reflects a wide range of activities, programs and resources.”

The Ohio Scientific Education & Research Association (OSERA) strives to foster a better understanding in Ohio about the benefits humans and animals have gained as a result of information generated from various types of research; and to foster a better understanding of how responsible animal research and instructional programs will remain essential until scientifically-valid alternatives are developed.
