Advancing 3Rs research

FC3R's mission is to encourage and implement the 3Rs principle in France through the promotion of responsible and innovative research, education and transparent communication.

FC3R's approach is proactive and positive, engaging in concrete actions to federate and develop a synergistic community, to enhance the value of the initiatives that emanate from it, and to give visibility and impact to these efforts, within the scientific community and with the general public.

One of its objectives is to federate the community by financing various initiatives in the field of the 3Rs through annual calls for projects.

Eligibility criteria

FC3R gives preference to supporting projects with high potential, likely to be sustainable and to impact the implementation of the 3Rs on the broadest possible scale. This will lead to benefits in terms of progress and technology that will ultimately reduce the number of animals used in research.

In order to maximize the impact of these different projects, the winners will be offered, in addition to financial support, the opportunity to promote their project within the FC3R network and to the general public.
