Stop Duke University's Cruel, Invasive, Senseless Primate Experimentation
We, the undersigned, ask that Duke University stop the invasive primate experiments conducted by Dr. Michael Platt in the Department of Neurobiology’s Center for Cognitive Neuroscience. These studies (which involve surgically inserting metal screws into the skulls of primates so that they can be bolted into primate restraint chairs) are extremely cruel, highly invasive, and are not leading to cures for human illnesses. We ask that our tax money be spent on relevant, non-invasive human studies such as imaging, cellular, human microdosing, clinical, genetic, emotional, epidemiological and socioeconomic studies.Note: This Stop Duke University's Cruel, Invasive, Senseless Primate Experimentation petition was submitted by Beth Levine.
