AZAALAS - National AALAS Award Nominations Needed

The deadline for nominations for AALAS awards is May 1. Nominations for these awards are always surprisingly sparse given the huge number of talented people in our field!

Consider nominating someone for one of the following awards:

Bennet J. Cohen Award - to an individual, group or institution for extraordinary effort to replace or reduce the number of animals used in research, teaching or testing or who refines procedures to elevate the comfort and well-being of such animals.

Charles A. Griffin Award - for outstanding accomplishments in the improvement of the care and quality of animals used in research.

Nathan R. Brewer Scientific Achievement Award - for major and repeated scientific contributions to the fields of laboratory animal science, laboratory animal medicine, or comparative medicine by a researcher over the age of 40.

Pravin N. Bhatt Young Investigator Award - To an investigator, younger than 40 and who has been active in comparative medicine for fewer than ten years, in recognition of outstanding research work.

Joseph J. Garvey Award - for contributions and accomplishments in administration, education or support of programs related to the care, quality or humane treatment of animals used in biomedical research.

George R. Collins Award - for outstanding contributions to training and education in laboratory animal science.

Technician of the Year Award - to an individual whose career is primarily in animal care with minimal supervisory responsibilities and who has exhibited an interest in education and training as a means to become more proficient in the field.


The nominees for all awards except the Cohen and Brewer awards must be national AALAS members.

Nomination procedures are not terribly cumbersome and are detailed on the AALAS Website . You can also call Carolyn Campbell at AALAS (901-754-8620) for more information.
