After completing a PhD in Veterinary Biochemistry, Marine joined the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (RSPCA) Animals in Science department, which works to promote the 3Rs in animal research. Marine’s work focuses on ensuring the robust ethical review of animal use in research by producing resources and delivering training for members of ethics committees (such as Institutional Animal Care and Use Committees [IACUCs] or Animal Welfare and Ethical Review Bodies [AWERBs]). This enables members to contribute to their committees effectively and to ensure animal use in research and testing is challenged both ethically and scientifically. Marine has previously conducted animal research with equids and is also an independent member of the ethical review committee at one of the UK’s top universities.
