In this episode, host Dr. Dana Kolsky speaks with Dr. Adam Cardillini, an environmental scientist exploring the
interconnection between animal ethics, conservation, and societal change. Dr. Cardillini discusses his journey from conducting traditional scientific research — which involved ethically challenging practices with animals — to advocating for transformative changes in the way scientific research considers animal well-being and moral value.
The conversation centers around the need for transparency and reform in animal research practices. Dr. Cardillini critically examines the prevalent culture in scientific research that often denies the intrinsic value of animals, leading to ethically questionable practices covered under the guise of scientific necessity. He further emphasizes the importance of recognizing animals as "research partners."
Dive into their thought-provoking discussion on fostering more ethical relationships with animals and the environment.
