ERA Action Support: Accelerating NAMs Uptake in Regulation
Pays one coordination team to run the EU-wide policy forum that gets governments, regulators and industry to agree on which animal-testing-alternative methods are ready for official use.
ERA Action Support: Accelerating NAMs Uptake in Regulation is a European Commission grant that pays one coordination team to run the EU-wide policy forum getting governments, regulators and industry to agree on which animal-testing-alternative methods are ready for official use. This is a single-stage Coordination and Support Action, evaluated on Excellence, Impact and Implementation, each needing…
The selected coordinator must already be an active participant in the ERA policy action and must deliver work across all four of its thematic working groups: identifying where new NAMs and shared infrastructure are most needed (WG1); helping Member States and industry jointly decide which NAMs are mature enough to validate and accept into regulatory testing (WG2); mapping and improving education and training on NAMs and the 3Rs principles (WG3); and building common openness policies, including publishing negative or neutral NAM and animal-testing results to avoid needless duplication (WG4). The action must bring together ministries, regulators, research funders, academia, pharmaceutical and medtech industry, contract research organisations, SMEs and startups into one EU-wide forum.
