Founded by NAVS in 1985, IFER supports the development, validation, and implementation of innovative scientific methodologies that advance science and replace the use of animals in research, testing, and education. IFER’s goal is to fundamentally change the course of science by incorporating respect and compassion for animals along with the pursuit of knowledge.
By supporting IFER, NAVS empowers science experts to fund non-animal methods by graduate student researchers. Through IFER, NAVS supports the research and development of humane research methods.
