The American Liver Foundation supports the responsible and humane use of animals in research. Animal research has yielded crucial advances in the fight against liver disease, and ALF is committed to facilitating current research of exceptional promise. Researchers, funded by ALF, must have their studies approved by their Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC), and must conduct all research in compliance with the Public Health Service Policy on Humane Care and Use of Laboratory Animals.
