Reply to comment by TangentiallyTango in What if We Didn’t Have to Test New Drugs on Animals? As organ-on-a-chip technology comes of age, the bipartisan FDA Modernization Act 2.0 would remove the requirement that new drugs must undergo animal testing before human clinical trials by Responsible-Hat5816

I actually turned down a lab tech job this summer where I would’ve needed to take care of the test animals (mice and rats to begin), clean their enclosure, and euthanize them as well. Had to thoroughly read the job description. Would have been a great opportunity to put in my resume, as I’d love to work with animals, just not like that. It’s at least a well compensated job but yikes.
