In this episode Julia Radzwill from Ärzte gegen Tierversuche explains the organisation's history and work, reveals how official animal testing figures can hide the true scale of suffering, and describes shocking examples of cruel experiments and the weak approval process in Germany.
She outlines the systemic reasons animal testing persists—career incentives, industry interests and underfunding of alternatives—and highlights promising non‑animal methods like organoids, multi‑organ chips and AI, plus the organisation's NAT database and campaigns pushing for political change.
