<div><strong>'This house believes that animal testing is detrimental to<br>human health and should be abolished.</strong>' The debate will feature Dr Jarrod<br>Bailey, the Scientific Director of Europeans for Medical Progress (EMP)
<br>proposing, and Kristina Cook, representative of Pro-test opposing.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>The debate organised by Sheffield University Debating Society and Sheffield University</div>
<div>Animal Rights Society. It will be held in <strong>Lecture Theatre 3 of the Arts Tower, Sheffield </strong></div>
<div><strong>University</strong>, and is open to all. <strong>Wednesday 17th May at 7pm</strong>. There will also be food available. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>This is an important and exciting debate between EMP, the organisation<br>at the forefront of challenging animal testing from a medical<br>standpoint, and Pro-Test, who recently formed to support animal testing,<br>
and particularly the building of the new Oxford University animal lab.<br>Hopefully there will be newspaper and local radio coverage. <strong>Non-students<br>will be more than welcome.</strong></div>
<div><br> It would be good to have as many of you there as possible. The debate<br>will purely focus on the scientific, not ethical issues. Personally, I<br>would always be opposed to animal testing, even if it was shown to benefit
<br>humans. However, many people don't realise that as well as being morally<br>wrong, animal testing is bad science and is bad for humans as well as<br>animals.<br> </div>
<div> Please tell as many people as you can about the debate, and in<br>particular your friends who belong to science/medical departments.</div>
<div>Hope to see you there!</div>
