Zaher Nahle

Zaher Nahle is a former animal researcher who currently serves as the senior scientific adviser for the Centre for a Humane Economy, a non-profit organization advocating for the ethical treatment of animals in research. He has been a prominent voice in discussions regarding the efficacy and ethics of animal testing, arguing that alternative methods can yield more reliable results in toxicology studies. Nahle's insights highlight the limitations of animal models in predicting human responses to drugs, as evidenced by the high failure rate of drugs deemed safe in animals but failing in human trials.
