Given the increasing media interest in the animal research issue CNN have decided to do a short web debate on Wednesday 9th November (tomorrow) . The debate starts noon EST (9am PST / 5pm GMT) and can be watched live on http://www.cnn.com/video/ – alternatively watch it afterward on CNN here. This will hopefully put to rest some activist claims that “we” are unwilling to publicly debate – we are willing and we intend to put the record straight.
The four participants are:
For Animal Research:
- Tom Holder – Founder of Speaking of Research
- P. Michael Conn – Associate Director of OHSU and author of “The Animal Research War“
Against Animal Research:
- Peter Young – Animal Rights Activist
- Ray Greek – President of Americans for Medical Advancement
There is an opportunity for viewers at home to send in their questions – so make sure you’re watching the segment.
Regards
Speaking of Research
