Admits monkeys died but not due to lack of care. 🤔 engineering
on its website, Neuralink has accused the PCRM of being against the use of animals in research in any form, even as current regulations require animal tests to be conducted prior to human trials.
The blog post traces the company's short history as it teamed up with UC Davis to access its prestigious California National Primate Research Center in the absence of its own animal facility. The CNPRC gave Neuralink access to monkey cadavers to trial its surgeries and later provided them with monkeys from other research projects that had to be euthanized due to conditions they had developed as part of the research.
Neuralink also claimed at its new facility, the company and its staff have gone beyond the regulatory demands to provide care to its animals and that includes housing, diet, socialization, removing restraints for its research animals, and retiring the animals who do not show an inclination to participate in their research studies.
It also claimed that its facilities meet the requirements as set up by the USDA and Animal Welfare Act. Stay ahead with the latest science, technology and innovation news, for free:
