U of M med. school to stop using live animals

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — The University of Minnesota plans to stop using live
animals to teach emergency medicine to doctors in training. The Medical
School will instead switch to high-tech simulations.
The Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine alleged the university was
violating the federal Animal Welfare Act.

A letter from the head of emergency medicine, Dr. Joseph Clinton, says the
university significantly reduced the use of live animals on July 1, and will
eliminate their use by the end of the year.

The Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine says more than 95 percent
of U.S. medical schools now use human simulations instead of live animals.
