Comments
I just read the recent editorial on animal research. The timing couldn't have been better for me, as this past weekend I was just questioning my personal view on the morals of animal experimentation. (The question I asked myself was: How can I be vegetarian and still be tangentially involved with animal research?) Thanks to the editorial I now have a lot of new things to read on the topic, and hopefully I'll eventually form a clear opinion.
