Single neuron studies have already been conducted in humans (Journal of Neuroscience 2007 (14): 3839-44). The monkey researchers have been doing these studies for years with no human benefit

This is horrific, where is the empathy for the sentient creatures inside institutions that permit the suffering of animals on a daily basis?

Everything we know about neurological diseases such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s has been learned from studying patients, their families and their tissues. ‘It is in human tissue that we will find the answers to these diseases’ – Dr John Xuereb, Director, Cambridge Brain Bank & Wolfson Imaging Centre.

# Deep brain stimulation for Parkinson’s disease was pioneered in patients, not monkeys, as its developer makes plain in New Scientist (2457) 24.7.04, p 40.

# In 2003, a senior planning inspector dismissed Cambridge University’s proposed primate laboratory because ‘no national need’ for such research was demonstrated.

Hundreds of drugs for stroke have been developed and tested in primates and other animals, yet all of them have failed and even harmed patients in trials. ‘The stroke community needs to think long and hard about whether these animal models are financially and ethically viable’ – Lancet editorial 2006.

It is not possible to replace the tracing studies performed on this monkey with PET, MRI or FMRI studies! no way! I am very suprised this man is not aware of this, obviously not a neuroscientist himself. Brain imaging(PET etc.) focusses on brain regions(very large groups of cells), Dye imaging studies is all about single-cell research!

Minimising the use of laboritory animals is a good thing, but try and use some correct arguments!!
