DESCRIPTION
This veterinarian-presented slide show demonstrates biomedical research using research animals benefits humans and other animals as well. In answering the animal "rights" oriented question of the ethics of doing research in living creatures, it instead makes the case that not doing the research is the true unethical position as advancements never made help no creature. Turning away from animals as vessels of biologic understanding is a turn away from enlightenment. Veterinarians who care for patients should understand that without animal-based research there can be no treatments and suffering writ large remains more widespread.TRANSCRIPT

How many have ever been sick?
How many have ever taken medicine?
How many have ever had a vaccine?
How many use an asthma inhaler?
How many know someone who has had cancer?
How many know someone who has had surgery?

Scientists: Real Heroes
Jedd D. Wolchok, MD, PhD
Dr. Wolchok is a medical oncologist who specializes in the treatment of melanoma. He is interested in finding new and improved ways to prevent melanoma from recurring after surgery, as well as more effective treatments for the disease when it does recur. His research is focused on the development of innovative ways to use the immune system to treat cancer.
