For the second time Doctors Against Animal Experiments Germany are awarding a 10 000 euro science prize for animal-free cancer research. The prize was made possible by a legacy specifically for this purpose. The goal of the award is to motivate especially younger scientists to conduct animal-free research and to promote scientific work carried out without the use of animal materials, as well as clinical or epidemiological studies.

The prize will be awarded for outstanding scientific work in the named areas. It may be awarded retrospectively for completed or current research or as an initial incentive for a planned project. Scientists who have already received the prize may not apply a second time.

Application criteria:

•    work in the field of cancer research
•    research without animal experiments and without animal material (e.g. in vitro or in silico) or
•    clinical or epidemiological study
•    research located in Germany or other German-speaking countries.

Application documents:

•    detailed description of research targets, research methods and the specific advance that will result for cancer research
•    exposition of the significance of this work for animal welfare
•    curriculum vitae.

The prize may be awarded in toto or shared by more than one recipient.
