The "uncomfortable knowledge" that is animal research - The Rat Trap by Pandora Pound, on how the unscientific yet embedded paradigm fails animals & humans, is an essential read.
Science Advancement and Outreach@SAOscience
"Many books about animal research are about the suffering of animals. This is certainly a legitimate area of concern, but I wanted to show that humans also suffer as a result of animal research." - Pandora Pound on her new book, Rat Trap.

Just heard the Home Secretary stand up in Parliament and declare that "the British people support the Rwanda plan".
I'm sick of these guys telling me what I support.
I do not support the "Rwanda plan".
If you don't either, please retweet.

"The question arising from this event for MSPs and wider society is why the views of three senior clerics should take precedence and block the rights of others to a choice that meets their beliefs on life and death in their final hours."

If there are 2109 differentially expressed genes between 2 models of *mouse* sepsis, there are probably many more differentially expressed genes between mouse & human #sepsis. Oh wait... we already knew that! So why are mice still being subjected to this? preprints.org/manuscript/202…

Fascinating to learn more about Professor @LuminitaParaoan’s research at her inaugural lecture today. In ‘Eyesight - seen & unseen’ she discussed the essential functions for vision and how vulnerable it is to deterioration. #EHUResearch #Opthalmology

Imagine predicting if a blood clot is fatal using a chip the size of a memory stick! Scientists funded by the NC3Rs and @TheBHF are developing non-animal methods to investigate how clots form and drugs to prevent deep vein thrombosis (DVT), stroke and coronary heart disease🧵

You could carry absolutely anything down that aisle and Huw Edwards would be like ‘here comes the ceremonial grapefruit, last carried by the Duke of Battersea in the admiralty wars of 1752’
