 In this episode Meg interviews Rachel from Animal Free Science Advocacy (AFSA), a not for profit organisatiion dedicated to advocating for the removal of animals from experimental science.  We talk about AFSA’s efforts to facilitate a culture of animal free alternatives in research, experimentation and training, and how this relates to the evolution of non animal experimental models of all kinds. Join us as we talk about current technology, how AFSA is tapping into this ever evolving aspect of research, and why it’s important to move away from animal models for scientific progress.  https://animalfreescienceadvocacy.org.au/what-you-can-do/ https://www.youtube.com/@AnimalFreeScienceAdvocacy https://www.podomatic.com/podcasts/animalfreescienceadvocacy  External Links: https://www.whenwejustify.org/ https://www.testsubjectsfilm.com  Music  Spoken word poem by Benjamin Zephaniah: https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=793396332139224&rdid=juvvSOL12iCZJnj0  Rocky Raccon – The Beatles: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qqA4ZiQaGtU  Song for Camp Beagle – Maria Daines: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uPYc2zDJhSc
