The Animal Free Labcast
The Animal Free Labcast is hosted by the CEO of Animal Free Research UK, Carla Owen, and is a frank, lively exchange and sharing of ideas and experiences by leading scientists, policy makers and animal protection ambassadors - all of whom seek a kinder science.Carla and her guests cut through the noise to break down why we need to accelerate human relevant science if we are to end the medical emergency - that which is in large part caused by the continued reliance on animals as models for human disease research.Listen in to new episodes every two weeks, starting on June 29, 2022!

World-class pioneer of biomedical research and innovation, Dr Don Ingber, is the founding director of Harvard University’s Wyss Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering.
In 2010, Dr Ingber developed a lung-on-a-chip - the first of its kind - and has continued to lead the field by developing numerous other organ chip models, demonstrating their ability to faithfully mimic human physiology and disease states as well as therapeutic responses.
