We've all heard the arguments against animal testing: it's cruel, it's unethical. But you may not know the dirty truth: it doesn't even work most of the time. This week on Taboo Science, we dive deep into the animal testing controversy. We talk to researchers and neuroscientists Dr. Katherine Roe and Dr. Emily Trunnell from PETA’s Science Advancement and Outreach Division about unethical experiments and flawed disease models. While scientists all over the world still rely on animal data, new technology like organs on chips and AI models offer a lot of promise. Tune in to hear what’s being done to end animal testing—and whether that’s really the best path forward.&nbsp;Learn more about the PETA Research Modernization Deal: <a href="https://www.peta.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/PETA-2021-Research-Modernization-Deal.pdf" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.peta.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/PETA-2021-Research-Modernization-Deal.pdf</a> See citations (a lot of them) and a transcript here: <a href="https://www.tabooscience.show/?p=550" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.tabooscience.show/s3e12-animal-testing/</a>Need music for a project?
