The Office of Research and Economic Development (ORED) and the Senate Committee on Research (CoR) invite you to participate in a brief survey on New Alternative Methodologies (NAMs) — innovative research approaches that complement or replace traditional animal models, such as organoids, tissue chips, and computational simulations.

The UC Merced NAMs Survey aims to:


  *   Assess investigators’ needs for developing and using NAMs
  *   Inventory current NAM-related capabilities across campus
  *
Identify opportunities for collaboration, training, and infrastructure development

Your input will help shape UC Merced’s strategy for supporting human-based research technologies and expanding participation in NIH’s growing NAM initiatives<https://www.nih.gov/news-events/news-releases/nih-prioritize-human-based-research-technologies>.

The survey takes less than 15 minutes to complete and is open to all principal investigators. The survey will be open until December 3rd.
