AAALAC international

The Global 3Rs Awards program recognizes significant innovative contributions toward the 3Rs of animal research to advance ethical science, by any researcher1 2(nominated author, principal investigator, or research team leader) in academia or industry in any area of biology (e.g., basic science, discovery, development, teaching, testing, manufacture for new medicines, vaccines, medical devices or healthcare products for humans and animals). Up to four Global Awards will be presented in 2025 in the amount of $10,000 (USD) each. Award nominations for the three Geographic Regions (The Americas, Asia-Pacific, Europe-Africa-Middle East) must be based on a primary research paper that advances any of the 3Rs (i.e., the Refinement, Replacement or Reduction of animal use) and is published in a peer-reviewed journal in the last three (3) years.3 These may include modifications to existing research techniques or any innovative research approach including, but not limited to: improvements to whole-animal models, tissue-based models (e.g., cell lines, tissue cultures), molecular techniques (e.g., proteomics), analytic and computational models, study design or technique refinements (e.g., sampling technologies, improved test methods), and translational medicine applications. One award per each of the three stated regions may be granted for the primary research paper category. Submissions for the Summative 3Rs category can include systematic reviews and meta-analyses that develop fundamental new insights into the 3Rs, comprehensive narrative or scoping reviews, handling or use techniques that replace, refine or reduce animal use and is published in a peer-reviewed journal in the last three (3) years.3 One award may be granted for the summative 3Rs category. Submissions will be assigned into one of the respective categories for committee review.4

3Rs Awards Disclaimer
The selection of the awardees represents the opinion of the reviewers. These reviewers regard these publications as innovations and promising advances worthy of recognition and reinforcement of exposure to the greater biomedical community. Award selection is not an endorsement or expectation that these specific 3Rs methods/procedures must be used by IQ Companies and/or AAALAC International accredited institutions. Ultimate adoption of a specific 3Rs strategy into a specific program is often complex and may include acceptance by regulatory bodies. Moreover, the committee recognizes that significant scientific corroboration and experience with the application of the new techniques may be required before a specific method or procedure warrants or achieves widespread adoption.

Individuals interested in applying for a Global 3Rs Award are expected to consider both real (i.e., financial or other personal or professional considerations) and perceived (i.e., an appearance of being at an advantage) conflicts of interest before submitting their applications. Questions regarding a potential conflict of interest may be directed to the AAALAC international Chief Executive Officer (gborkowski@aaalac.org).
