Mission Critical With Neal Barnard, MD

Join us for this week’s Mission Critical update on Friday, Feb. 20, at 2 p.m. ET. Physicians Committee President Neal Barnard, MD, will bring us this week’s news on how PCRM is getting animals out of research and advocating for plant-based nutrition. Host Betsy Wason will be welcoming PCRM Regulatory Testing Specialist Eryn Slankster-Schmierer, PhD, who will give us the latest on the NURA program and how we are training researchers in nonanimal methodologies. And PCRM’s Director of Clinical Research, Hana Kahleova, MD, PhD, MBA, will join for a special presentation on how plant-based eating benefits the environment, in addition to human health. We look forward to hearing your questions and seeing you live in the chat!

Next week’s episode will feature a special live Q&A with Dr. Barnard! You’re welcome to ask questions live during the show or email membership [at] pcrm.org in advance with a question you’d like us to consider. Due to time limits, we won’t be able to answer every question, but we’ll cover as many as possible. Please note that questions should focus on our work and mission; we won’t be able to address personal health questions.
