Another research project, now underway at the University of North Carolina at Chapel

Hill, is called Drug Induced Liver Injury simulation model (DILI-sim). This is taking
results from testing animals and reverse engineering to develop a computer model for
testing new drugs in the future.



What will be an ideal response?


Would you be comfortable taking a new medication that
had only been tested with this sort of computer simulation testing? Would you be more
comfortable taking medication that had first been tested on animals of some kind? Use
ethical reasoning to develop your answer.
