Every living creature ages over time, we all have that in common. But does it make sense to study human aging by using animals such as mice? Mice have an average life expectancy of about 2 years (about 2% that of humans). Animals do not suffer from the same age and lifestyle-related conditions as humans, yet they are routinely used to study human conditions where age is a known factor.

We believe there is another way. At the FRAME Laboratory at the University of Nottingham we are supporting the development of human-based models of neuroinflammation using donated stem cells to allow scientists to study these diseases and develop and test drugs in conditions much more closely related to our human bodies.

All our work is only possible through the support of people who care about creating a world where animals are not used in medical experiments. We want to make the world a better place for animals and humans by ending the use of animals in scientific and medical research. One of the best ways you can help us achieve this goal is by leaving us a gift in your will. We have received gifts of £100 to £100,000 and no matter what the size every penny helps us fund better, non-animal methods.

Help us create a better future.
