D models coupled with live-cell imaging can enhance the overall reliability of preclinical renal safety evaluations.

Animal models are established, important tools for preclinical safety and efficacy testing. Companies are advancing more “humanized” models to better reflect human responses, while at the same time ...

The Trump administration is redoubling its efforts to phase out animal testing in drug development and seeking to develop new ...

Animal models have long shaped how biomedical research is conducted. They have influenced how diseases are studied, how risks are assessed, and how potential treatments move from early discovery ...

When developing drugs, we rely on animal models to test drugs in an entire system before first-in-human studies. However, animals aren’t human and interspecies differences in pharmacology, physiology, ...

Every year, more than 100 million animals are used globally in biomedical research, yet over 90% of drugs that appear effective in animal trials fail during human clinical testing. 1 This staggering ...

Last November, the UK government announced a bold plan to phase out animal testing in some areas of research. Animal tests ...
