Projects

Want to learn more about the COLAAB's ongoing work?

The COLAAB has multiple ongoing projects led by its Mitigation and Evidence Working Groups. Our work aims to characterize animal methods bias in different research assessment contexts and to develop and implement strategies for addressing it. So far, projects have focused on animal methods bias in publishing (during the peer review of manuscripts) and in funding (during the peer review of grant applications). Below, you can find out more about ongoing projects.

Editor Outreach

We’re reaching out to editors with potential interventions to improve fairness in the review of nonanimal biomedical research methods.

Funder Advocacy

The COLAAB engages in advocacy efforts to encourage funders of biomedical research to address review-related barriers facing researchers who use nonanimal approaches.
