How many U.S. medical schools still use animals and how many use non-animal teaching methods?
Of the 126 allopathic and 28 osteopathic medical schools in the U.S., more than 90 percent have entirely eliminated the use of animals for all medical student courses as of December 2007. Almost all the remaining schools have only one or very few animal lab courses, and the number of schools still using animals continues to decline each year.
