Over Ł4 million for 3Rs research >>

Over Ł4 million for 13 research projects that aim to replace, reduce or refine the use of animals in research and testing was announced on 26 July 2010 by the NC3Rs. This brings the total research investment since 2004 to almost Ł17 million on 67 different grants.

The Information Portal is an area of the website containing annotated links to online databases, websites, journal articles, legislation and other publications. These resources provide information to help you apply the 3Rs and ensure the best possible standards in animal welfare. There are also links for information on funding schemes for 3Rs research.
