Animal experimentation remains one of the most polarizing issues in biomedical ethics. On one side of a seemingly unbridgeable divide are researchers driven by a genuine desire for knowledge and better treatments for devastating diseases; on the other side, we find activists who are just as genuine in their advocacy for the rights of the animals who often suffer and die during the course of such research.

About this event
Donald Trump and Elon Musk think this country belongs to them. Columbus is fighting back!
They’re taking everything they can get their hands on — our health care, our data, our jobs, our services — and daring the world to stop them. This is a crisis, and the time to act is now.
On Saturday, April 5, we’re taking to the streets to fight back with a clear message: “Hands off!”
