CDC to end monkey research programs
scientificamerican.comInstead of using nonhuman primate models or other animals, the agencies aim to invest more in new chip-based and cellular models.
“CDC is committed to the highest standards of ethical and humane care and to minimizing the use of laboratory animals in accordance with the principles of animal welfare in scientific research known as ‘replacement, reduction and refinement,’” a CDC spokesperson told Scientific American.
A win for animal rights. More humane.
