NIH’s Initiative to Prioritize Human-Based Research a ‘Big Win for Animals,’ Says Doctors Group
“Animal experiments are poorly representative of human health and disease and rarely predictive of drug efficacy, safety, and toxicity in humans. The reliance on animals is a direct contributor to high failure rates in the drug development pipeline.” Listen to today’s episode from Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine at PCRM.org

==================
The Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine is a non-profit organization founded by Dr. Neal Barnard, combining the clout and expertise of more than 12,000 physicians, dietitians, and scientists and almost 200,000 members worldwide. They’re changing the way doctors treat chronic diseases such as diabetes, heart disease, obesity, and cancer - putting prevention over pills,and empowering patients to take control of their own health. And since 1985, the Physicians Committee has worked tirelessly for alternatives to the use of animals in medical education and research, and for more effective scientific methods.
The Physicians Committee is dedicated to saving and improving human and animal lives through plant-based diets and ethical and effective scientific research.
