Apply for Research Funding
If you have a project that can help move 3Rs along and meets our criteria, we are looking forward to your application. Below you will find all the information we need to process your request. We will process your application as soon as possible and contact you once we have evaluated it. Of course all your data will be held in the strictest confidentiality.
Formal requirements for applications
Applications for funding by the SET Foundation must contain the following information:
- The requested amount, itemised by personnel, operating costs, investments etc.; all the items (including personnel expenditures) to be quoted in Euro.
- The scheduled duration of the project
- A detailed description of your project, outlining both the type of animal experiments affected and the extent of their reduction. Since reducing animal experiments in the 3Rs sense is the Foundation's central goal, such reductions must be a manifest outcome of the project. This is prerequisite to a positive assessment of any application for funding.
- A generally intelligible summary of the project, not exceeding one page. This summary, which is intended only for use within the Foundation and will not be made public, should convey the project's novel approach and indicate the type and extent of the reduced/replaced animal experiments.
- A statement saying whether the application in question (or a similar one) has already been filed with other institutions or will be filed there (including the respective institutions' names).
