Lush Prize joins the Alliance for Human Relevant Science
The Alliance is pleased to welcome the Lush Prize as its newest organisational member.
Launched in 2012, the Lush Prize rewards initiatives across science and campaigning that work to end or replace animal testing with modern scientific methods. Since then it has awarded prize funding of almost £3 million to 140 successful projects worldwide across several categories; Science, Training, Public Awareness, Lobbying, Political Advocacy and Young Researchers, as well as further awards and commendations to recognise Political Achievement and Major Science Collaborations. Alongside funding awards, the Prize continues its work in communications, policy and outreach on the need to transition from animal-based research to approaches which are more human and environmentally relevant.The aims of the Lush Prize align with the objectives of the Alliance to;
* Support better science for better health;
* To save lives – human and animal – through improved research, development safety and efficacy testing of medicines and other chemicals;
* To save money through more relevant research.
