Criticisms of the use of animals in biomedical research come from many different groups in society. Particular attention has to be paid to these criticisms if they are put forward by physicians, research scientists and health workers.

They should be the ones able to answer the question: does the knowledge so gained really help in reducing human and/or animal suffering?
