We need less animal research, better animal research, and animal research done for the right reasons
Abstract
Animal research has contributed to modern medicine and continues to play an important role in biomedical science. At the same time, its scale and quality deserve closer scrutiny. If it is to retain scientific and societal legitimacy, we must be clear about when we use it, how we conduct it, and why we rely on it at all.
Fields of Study & Subjects
Animal testing and alternatives
