Understanding Animal Research: Who we work with
Understanding Animal Research is a Mutual Society (not-for-profit organisation) that explains why animals are used in medical and scientific research. We aim to achieve a broad understanding of the humane use of animals in medical, veterinary, scientific and environmental research in the UK. We are funded by our members who include universities, professional societies, industry and charities.
Currently, we have over 160 supporters drawn from various sectors including academic, pharmaceutical, charities, research funders, and professional and learned societies. In this video, Chief Executive Wendy Jarrett explains how we work with our various members across the country.
