Better Science NEAVS knows and shows that there is a better way to promote human and animal health and safety than the cruel, outmoded and counterproductive use of animals in experimentation, product testing, medical and veterinary training, and classroom dissection. Species differences between animals and humans lead to flawed science and incorrect conclusions. (For example, forcing dogs to inhale cigarette smoke did not show a link to lung cancer; Flosint, an arthritis medication, tested safe in monkeys but caused human deaths; and the recalled diet drug phen-fen caused no heart damage in animals, while it did in humans.)

NEAVS Submits Comments to NICEATM/NIEHS NEAVS calls for an immediate end to all animal toxicity testing citing ample evidence showing the benefits of using non-animal alternatives in toxicity testing.
