Critical assessments and reviews
Animal experiments have long been
the subject of controversy. Although many claims have been made either way, large-scale
studies of their efficacy in advancing human healthcare have been
rare, until recently. However, a growing body of such studies have now been published in
peer-reviewed scientific journals. The results are remarkably consistent: laboratory animals
commonly experience significant stress, and experiments on them contribute far less to the advancement
of human medical progress than is often claimed. The
abstracts and, often, complete texts of these published studies, as well
as published reviews of
non-animal experimental models, and relevant governmental reports, are freely downloadable
here.
