Competition Application and Guidelines

EUROTOX and Humane Society International present the 2008 European Animal Welfare and Alternatives Awards supported by P&G.

An award of €30,000 will be presented to the successful applicant in recognition of contributions to the research and development of alternative methods, research in toxicology, mechanistic risk assessment resulting in reduced animal use, or contributions to laboratory science.

The aim of the award is to provide support and encouragement to a scientist who can make meaningful progress in developing alternatives. This award will emphasise the role of good science in finding solutions.

Eligibility & Geography:
All applicants must be located in the European region. The award is open to individual scientists. Institutions will not be considered for the award.

Application:
Applications will be limited to a two-page summary detailing the contribution of the candidate to research and development of alternative methods or research in toxicology and mechanistic risk assessment resulting in the eventual elimination of animal testing or reduced animal use (based on the principles of refinement, reduction and replacement).

Reference should be made to key publications detailing the contributions as well as any evidence of regulatory or other (quasi-) official endorsement. The application should be endorsed by a peer (at a separate institution) with appropriate knowledge of the candidate.

The €30,000 award is intended for professional use and the applicant should therefore include a one-page proposal detailing the intended research (or other related) activities to which these funds will be applied. A curriculum vitae of the applicant should also be included (maximum three-pages). All documents are to be provided in PDF format. The recipient of the award will be invited to submit a paper at a EUROTOX conference.

Deadline & Submission:
Applications for awards are due by February 29, 2008.

Completed applications should be sent to animalresearch.im@pg.com with the subject heading "Animal Alternatives Award 2008".

Enquiries may also be submitted to the same email address with the heading "Award Query".

Evaluation:
Evaluation will be via a review committee to include nominees drawn from partner organizations.

Announcement:
Details of the award recipients for 2008 should be available on this website by the end of March, 2008.
