drug candidates fail in humans.

12. WHY DOES ANIMAL
TESTING CONTINUE?
"Typically, animal studies are essential for research that
seeks to understand complex questions of disease
progression, genetics, lifetime risk or other biological
mechanisms of a whole living system that would be
unethical, morally unacceptable or technically unfeasible
or too difficult to perform in human subjects". (NABR,
2022).

"Default method" for testing the safety of
the product.

Important role in medical advancement.
