Recognizing Sample Clauses

Recognizing that humane, cost-effective, and scientif- ically suitable non-animal methods are available for certain research models, the agreement directs NIH to appoint a working group to make recommendations for encour- aging the use of non-animal models where appropriate in NIH intramural and extra- mural research, including epidemiological and clinical studies, cell-based methods, computer modeling and simulation, and human tissue studies, with consideration for complexity of the biomedical research area, and the current applicability and translat- ability of the non-animal model. The panel should also report on effectively moving re- search away from methods that rely on poor- ly-defined animal models to methods that rely on validated non-animal alternatives. The working group should review and rec- ommend means of encouraging greater reli- ance on validated human-relevant non-ani- mal methods/approaches that are appro- priate for identified research areas. Member- ship should include individuals with proven knowledge of/experience with non-animal re- search methods; with proven knowledge of/ expertise with animal research models; with expertise in evaluating the adequacy of jus- tifications described in research applications and proposals for why the research goals cannot be accomplished using an alternative model; and with knowledge of research ani- mal welfare, and relevant scientific limita- tions. The Committee asks that NIH provide a report of the working group’s findings within 180 days of enactment of this Act. IDeA States Pediatric Clinical Trials Net-
