The International Foundation for Ethical Research proudly displays the current members of the Scientific Advisory Board (SAB) below.

The lifeblood of any organization are those people who consistently support and share their ideas for the advancement of its’ principles. These dedicated individuals, shown here, voluntarily serve countless hours reviewing proposals for the selection and funding of the Graduate Fellowship Program. They also agree to mentor certain graduate students to assure that the funding IFER allocates to these projects is properly spent on resources that will make a difference in finding scientifically valid alternatives to the use of animals in research, product testing, and education.

We wish to thank all our past and present members of the Scientific Advisory Board for their many years of dedication to the International Foundation for Ethical Research.
