Abstract

ATLA 25, 595-597, 1997 neck does not occur, in which many chemicals are LASA ALTERNATIVES SECTION predicted to be efficacious, but still require initial MEETING screening for toxicity before animal testing begins. One of the limitations of in vztro techniques is The inaugural meeting of the Labora~ory Ani~al the lack of interaction with other bodily systems, Science Association (LASA) Alternatives Section such as the endocrine and nervous systems. Julian took place in London on 5 June 1997. The meeting, Paton (Department of Physiology, University of entitled "Where are we up to with replacement?", Bristol) described research on the brain stem con­ addjessed a number of issues related to the use of trol of the cardiovascular system (CVS) and respi­ replacement alternatives. The 32 members of the ratory system, which employed m vitro techniques audience came from a variety of backgrounds and with physiological significance.
