Help Modernize Medical Education
Help Modernize Medical Education The majority of medical schools in the United States, including Harvard, Stanford, and Yale, have replaced their use of live animals in physiology, pharmacology, and/or surgical-training exercises with humane and effective non-animal teaching methods (e.g., observation of actual human cardiac bypass surgery, patient simulators, cadavers, sophisticated computer programs, etc.).

Unfortunately, a number of less progressive institutions continue to cut into and kill dogs and other animals in what can only be described as glorified sessions of show and tell. Please ask the following medical schools to eliminate live animal labs from their curricula:
