ARE SCIENCE FAIRS IN YOUR STUDENTS’ FUTURE? Afiya Quryshi, First Place winner of the 2019 N AVS Humane Science Award Science fairs allow students to transform classroom knowledge into real-world results. At the National Anti-Vivisection Society, we’re excited to see students using their talents to advance science in innovative, humane ways.

Each year at the International Science and Engineering Fair (ISEF), the world’s largest pre-college science competition, NAVS presents its Humane Science Award to exceptional students who develop or use non-animal research methodologies for their projects.

When your students take part in local science fairs, encourage them to select projects that advance humane science—maybe they’ll be the next recipients of NAVS’ Humane Science Award.

Cash prizes totaling $17,500 will be awarded. Learn more at www.NAVS.org/ISEF.

To Darwin, the process included mating competition within one sex, and mate choice between sexes. Critically, Darwin viewed mate choice as a “taste for the beautiful” that was a distinct evolutionary mechanism from natural selection.
