UAR commented on an unbalanced and factually incorrect article published last week about a Welsh animal rights organisation. While UAR is not a lobby group - we are a non-profit advocacy organisation - we appreciate that they have published an updated version of this piece containing evidence-based information on animal research in the UK. "The group Wales Against Animal Experiments argues there is no need to experiment on animals and that alternative research methods are preferable. But Chris Magee, head of policy and media for Understanding Animal Research, said: 'People in Wales do not, in fact, oppose animal testing. A minority (about 40%) strongly support measures to develop alternatives to animals and gradually phase out animal use. However, their view is generally more intelligent and nuanced, and with polls it can be all about how you ask the question. Once they understand what they’d lose – like Covid vaccines and cancer drugs – then 79% find it acceptable. Generally, people are opposed – if they are opposed – to what they incorrectly think animal testing is and almost everyone agrees that animals should only be used where there is no alternative.' 'There is nobody arguing for animal use where there is an alternative,' Magee explains. 'There are people who can find it acceptable to prevent greater suffering, and that’s the context in which animals are used in Wales. In fact, those who do animal experiments are the world’s biggest investors in non-animal technologies – we understand perfectly well what they can and, crucially, cannot do.'"

Two of our members followed our partner's @The_EARA NTS Writing online workshop. A new date will be announced soon!

💻💯Yesterday we had our first open (and sold out with over 40 people) Non-Technical Summaries (NTS) Writing online workshop. 📅‼️Another one is already coming in late January! 🐁📄We went through several aspects of proactive communication and how to use and simplify #NTS for increased accessibility and public understanding of #AnimalResearch.

In a new study, a single injection given for asthma attacks was more effective than the current treatment of steroid tablets. The drug - benralizumab - was first studied in various animal models, including mice and nonhuman primates, which was then followed by human studies. Additionally, mouse models were used to study the pathophysiology of asthma prior to studying the administration of benralizumab. Read more here: buff.ly/41bvOIr
