Michelson Prize

About this program

Found Animals sponsors the $25 million Michelson Prize, part of a $75 million program supporting research to develop a permanent, single-dose, nonsurgical sterilant for male and female cats and dogs. Applicants must first register by submitting their contact and institutional information, a Registration Letter describing a plausible product-development hypothesis, collaborator details, and a signed animal-research policy agreement. Approved registrants must then sign and submit the Competition Guidelines before advancing to the full application and prize-study stages.
