They were formed forty three years ago to raise funds to build, staff & equip an institute in the UK to provide facilities for scientists & other research workers in the field of medical research without using animals. They have achieved that by announcing a world first initiative of having a Professional Chair in Animal Replacement Science. They will collaborate a global search for ethical, human-relevant alternatives to animal testing. This will benefit humans as animals are a different species & have very different make up. They fund research into Alzheimers,, schizophrenia, rabies,epilepsy to name a few. The Alzheimers 3-D cell cultures are helping to replace 20 years of research using mice. They have funded scientists who have developed a three-demential model.
