AALAS Foundation Materials for Public Outreach The AALAS Foundation funds the development and production of outreach resources with the help of many individuals, corporations, and AALAS branches. As you look through this section, you will find programs and materials that promote public awareness of the benefits of biomedical research and enhance the responsible use of laboratory animals. Whether you are a member of the public seeking clear, factual information about the responsible use of animals in biomedical research, or an AALAS member planning to present a public outreach program, you will find useful resources for different age groups and audiences.
