Clinical Trials on Animals The use of clinical trials on animals is an important part of the drug discovery and development process. Animals are used to test the safety and efficacy of new drugs before they are made available to humans. The use of animals in clinical trials helps to ensure that new drugs are […]
Clinical cancer advances in research are featured in this year’s 2021 ASCO report reflecting progress in various cancers and across prevention and treatment.
Scientific proof emerges from the heart of the conventional scientific establishment, not from the fringes of alternative medicine. A book published two years ago called Cancer as a Metabolic Disease, written by Thomas N. Seyfried, Ph.D.
