UK Invests to End Animal Testing | Manchester News
Description
The UK is pouring £22 million into a bold new mission: ending animal testing in medical research. With over 2.5 million procedures last year, officials aim to accelerate progress by funding a cutting-edge Cambridge hub and nine high-tech projects. These initiatives will develop human tissue models — like lab-grown organoids that mimic real organs — to predict drug responses more accurately than animals can. From beating heart cells to AI-driven predictions, these innovations promise faster, smarter treatments for diseases like cancer and IBD, all while moving science toward truly human-centered testing.
