In the event of an attack, SfN and others can offer support.
SfN's stands behind the position that both basic and clinical research in many areas of biomedical research cannot continue without the use of animals in research. If being targeted by animal rights activists, members should contact SfN's Policy & Advocacy department for prompt assistance.
