Hi, I wanted to thank you for your blog, it’s one of the first things I read in the morning! I also wanted to let you know about a project the non-profit I work for, NEAVS, just launched. We’re offering a grant for women scientists doing non-animal research in women’s health or sex differences. The purpose is to promote women in science (who continue to hold lower positions and salaries than men), promote better science in women’s health (as traditional clinical studies rely on male patients), and advance non-animal alternatives (as animal research is both inhumane and not predictive of human responses). I’m excited about the funding opportunity, and hoping to get as many qualified applicants as possible! If you know anyone who might be interested, or could share with your followers, we would greatly appreciate it! Info is at alternativestoanimalresearch.org Thanks for all you do for women and animals!
Sharing this piece of "fan mail" (lol I feel so silly using that term in reference to myself) I received from Animal Musings. Check out the 2014-15 Inaugural Fellowship Grant for Alternatives to Animal Research in Women's Health here. The deadline for applications is October 31st!
