Does the CF Trust fund research involving animals?
The Cystic Fibrosis Trust is a member of the Association of Medical Research Charities (AMRC), which recognises that a minimal amount of strictly controlled work using animals is essential to make progress in the treatment of life-threatening diseases. New medicines are required by law to use animals during development and safety-testing and by law, animals cannot be used in research if there is an equally good non-animal alternative.
