Practice
According to the overwhelming majority of members of the scientific community, it is currently not possible to avoid the use of animal experiments.
Among the ‘animal activists’, there are those who maintain, on the other hand, that animal experiments are ineffective and should be replaced using other methods.
An enormously expensive solution, but one that would cause ethics committees to jump for joy, would be to clone human beings, perhaps by genetically modifying them to prevent them from feeling pain. Such clones would have multiple uses, not only in clinical studies but also for organ harvesting or, more simply, for training purposes for novice doctors. No more rats would be harassed in clinical trials and we would all be happier.
In case anyone reads the lines above, let them know that the site owner is a joker, and does not really think we should clone human beings and then treat them worse than lab rats.

I don’t have much to say about this image, ultimately it is one of the trifles I spend some time on, pretending that life is not short…
