The most important principle underpinning animal experimentation regulation and policy internationally is that the likely benefits of such research must outweigh its expected costs. The intended beneficiaries are usually human patients or consumers, while the animal subjects bear the main harms, or costs.
 
It is therefore surprising that human benefits are usually uncritically assumed, rather than critically assessed on the basis of reliable evidence. My site www.AnimalExperiments.info provides peer-reviewed scientific studies and governmental reports which deliver accurate information about the impacts laboratory animals experience, the human benefits accruing from invasive animal research, and the potential offered by alternative research, testing and educational strategies.
 
Following weeks of research, the list of available studies has now been considerably expanded, helpfully grouped and organized, and supplemented by a series of published summary articles, some of which also serve as ideal handouts.
