Fellowship Announcement

The 2019 Application Cycle for Graduate Student Fellowships for Alternatives to the Use of Animals in Science is now open. Applications are due no later than 11:59 PM CST on Tuesday, April 30, 2019.

Our fellowships provide up to $12,500 annually in stipendiary support and up to $2,500 for supplies per year. The fellowships are renewable annually for up to three years. Continued funding is dependent on student progress and availability of funds.

"I believe scientists who are working in biology, bioengineering, pharmacology and other relevant fields are aware of the limitations and ethical issues of using animal surrogates… I believe that the implementable pathway for achieving the 3Rs (Replacement, Reduction and Refinement) can largely be explored by the scientists, where I am super proud of my current project in terms of the possibility to contribute to this trend."
