The Animal Research Committee (ARC) is pleased to announce the Spring 2022 3Rs funding opportunity, provided by the Office of the Vice Chancellor for Research and Creative Activities. The VCR is once again offering up to $20,000 for the current award cycle.

Aim of Award: The aim of the program is to promote and support pilot studies designed to replace the use of animals in research, reduce the numbers of animals necessary, or refine methods to make them less painful or stressful to the animals involved (the “3Rs”).

Criteria for Award: Applications will be evaluated for scientific merit, budget appropriateness, and relevancy to 3Rs.

Deadline for Submission: March 18, 2022
