The event will cover why and how to shift away from animal use in science, the politics and legislation of animal experimentation, the importance of human-focused research to improve drug safety, as well as recent developments in alternatives to animal testing. The book launch will close with a facilitated discussion on how to achieve the final goal of full replacement of animal experimentation.Join us to explore how this paradigm change can help achieve the political goals of reduced animal experimentation and improved healthcare research for everyone.Registration DeadlineThe event is free of charge.
