This grant funds research on veterinary pharmacology and pharmacokinetics to improve drug safety, effectiveness, and disease management in animal species.
Funder: American Veterinary Medical Foundation
Due Dates: September 15, 2026
Funding Amounts: Up to $30,000 per grant (Veterinary Pharmacology or Pharmacokinetic); project duration up to 2 years
Summary: Supports research on new and existing drugs to improve prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of diseases in veterinary species.
The VPRF/AVMF Pharmacology Research Grants, jointly funded by the Veterinary Pharmacology Research Foundation (VPRF) and administered by the American Veterinary Medical Foundation (AVMF), aim to advance animal health through research in veterinary pharmacology and pharmacokinetics. The program funds projects that evaluate the safety and effectiveness of novel or existing drug therapies, develop models of animal diseases, ensure food safety in treated livestock, and address antimicrobial resistance. Both pharmacology and pharmacokinetic proposals are considered, with an emphasis on studies that have direct relevance to veterinary species.
