Description
The
mission of the AALAS Grants for Laboratory Animal Science (GLAS) Program is to
enhance scientific knowledge in laboratory animal health and welfare through
research, and to further promote collaborative efforts by the AALAS membership
within the broader scientific community. The Scientific Advisory Committee
oversees this program.
The
GLAS Program provides competitive short-term research grants in the laboratory
animal science field. Current AALAS members are invited to apply for one-year
grants of up to $50,000 (Standard Grant) or $7,500 (Small Grant). The principal
investigator (PI) must be an AALAS member but Co-PIs need not be members. PIs
are strongly encouraged to include collaboration with a research scientist in
their proposals. Examples of research interest are as follows: environmental
conditions; housing and enrichment; pain and distress; health and welfare;
euthanasia; and advancements in animal care and use. Refer to previous awards
for examples of the kind of research supported.
