Animal experiments: EU is pushing to find substitutes fast

The European Parliament is once again pushing to accelerate transition to a research system that does not involve testing on animals (see go.nature.com/3hzprhj).

Meeting this challenge will require extraordinary commitment and dedicated communication by the scientific community.
