linda lachapelle 0 Posté(e) le 17 avril 2007 Duke University a déclaré de ne plus employer des porcs pour les cours de chirurgie. Demande aux 5 universités de suivre cet exemple et de remplacer les animaux par des alternatifs. Si quelqu'un est intéressé dans les adresses vous les trouverez tout en bas.

Did you know that the Duke University School of Medicine recently confirmed that it has stopped using live animals to teach surgery?. Medical faculty and practicing physicians know that students do not need to train on live animals to become successful physicians or surgeons. In fact, last year the American College of Surgeons (ACS) stopped using live animals in any of its own surgery educational and training programs. It also established a new certification program, the Accredited Education Institutes, which does not include live animal use in its surgery training guidelines. In addition, the American Medical Student Association recently took a major step toward modernizing medical education by passing a resolution strongly encouraging the replacement of live animal laboratories with non-animal alternatives in undergraduate medical education. Please take the wise and compassionate decision of Duke University School. Thank you for your time and attention, Vos coordonnées Partager ce message Lien à poster Partager sur d’autres sites
