Physicians Committee Collaborates with Computational Modeling Company Insilica to Replace Animals in Regulatory Testing

Millions of animals are used every year to test chemicals for regulatory requirements, including chemicals that have already been shown to be safe. Thankfully, the company Insilica is leading the way for computational models to predict chemical-induced human health outcomes without the use of animals. The Physicians Committee welcomed the company as a sponsor of our nonanimal research training event, the 2026 Summer Immersion on Innovative Approaches in Science.
