RE: Nixon Secretly Commissioned The First "Cannabis Cures Cancer" Study! (Read the full version)
Yes, good point. In vivo research either requires mice to grow their own tumors or to have human tumors implanted into them. A disgusting process that makes animal research not vegan, and that's sad...I'm not quite sure how to feel about that right now, but I think the first step is to research if alternatives are available, and then to advocate human clinical trials for cannabis as a cancer treatment, since it's proven safe and effective enough pre-clinically (moreso than anything we currently have available) and would reduce the amount of animal suffering all-round.
This is not a good link, though. I only understood what this meant because I've done a bit of research about research methodology, pun intended ;) Even for people who understand the reference, this link doesn't provide any helpful information. It's kind of just like name dropping.
