Жануарларсыз зерттеу арқылы медицинаны жетілдіру: Americans for Medical Advancement ұйымының қызметі

Americans for Medical Advancement (AFMA) is a not for profit, science based, patient advocacy organization dedicated to improving healthcare through biomedical research. It was founded by Ray and Jean Greek. The organization opposes the use of animals as causal analogical models, or predictive models, for human response, and argues that using animals as a basis for the human response to drugs is not a safe method of development. It Is important to note that the most trivial consequence of Trans Species Modelling Theory is a defunding of animal tests and a massive increase in funds for preclinical human based animal free research. AFMA is currently supporting the Parliamentary Early Day Motion 175 in UK,whose aim is a parliamentary peer reviewed scientific hearing on the validity of animal experiments when used to predict human response to drugs and disease

Americans for Medical Advancement conducts its experiments through critical thinking and the use of evolutionary biology, complexity science, genetics, and personalized medicine. What sets it apart is that it focuses “on the harm that is done to humans” and that animal protectionists are concerned about the harm done to animals.

Americans for Medical Advancement targets their work to improve healthcare. The way the organization hopes to do so is by developing safer, more efficient techniques to use in labs. Since AFMA believes that animals do not give an accurate reading of how drugs will make a human react, the first step would be eliminating animal testing in the development of drugs and treatments meant for humans. As a result, drug development should be quicker and more affordable. In other words, when studying higher level organisms, the predictive value to drugs is not accurate because there are too many differences between their complexities. Old findings suggested that there were more similarities than differences between similar mammals, so a monkey, for instance, would be tested for a certain heart condition in humans. Up to date science can now prove that although similar, a monkey's heart differs from a human heart, and therefore would not provide precise data in comparison to a human heart.
