​We are members of the research community from both public and private organizations that conduct or support research in the United States. 

 

We pursue greater openness as the foundation upon which institutions that are involved in research, teaching and/or testing with animals will be able to better enhance understanding about why, when and how animals are needed to advance medicine and science.

 

We believe openness will help to maintain public support for essential animal research in valuable medical outcomes for humans and animals.
