Cláudio F. Rocha, Christiane Guilherme, Günther Gehlen

• Physiology teaching has been always associated to the use of laboratory animals. Since the current discussion about the real need of laboratory animals in research and education, and the strong local and international recommendation for animal use reduction, physiology teachers are facing the challenge of rethinking the physiology lab lessons. The aim of this work is to report the animal replacement approaches taking place at Universidade Feevale, as well as the point of view of those involved.
