Purpose

NC3Rs and BBSRC wish to encourage more integrative and interdisciplinary research to strengthen basic and translational research into tissue engineering solutions for replacing animal experiments.

Key aims

To encourage more integrative and interdisciplinary research to strengthen basic and translational research into tissue engineering solutions for the replacement of animal experiments. In particular collaborative work developing and characterising tissue models with respect to the practical and scientific needs of researchers currently working with animal models (or researching into non-animal alternatives) is encouraged
