Re: Phasing out the use of animals in undergraduate research
Dear Cardiff Metropolitan University,
Could you please point me to the summary information regarding your establishment's progress on phasing out animals in basic research?
Have you provided an end date when the use of animals finally ceases to be used by your establishment ?
If not why not?
Yours faithfully,
Linda Birr-Pixton
