Research Funding Overview

The Dr Hadwen Trust is inviting grant applications from UK-based Researchers for research which will advance scientific and medical knowledge and replace the use of laboratory animals in medical research. Grants are not available simply in support of non-animal research per se. The research must be directed towards replacing the use of living animals in current procedures within the applicant’s laboratory or, preferably, in the wider field. Research which requires or involves the use of living animals in any way, even though the ultimate aim may be to replace their use, will not be supported. We will not fund the purchase or maintenance of animals for any reason. The deadline for submitting a preliminary application for the 2010 round of grants is Monday 28 February.
