“…Consequently, current drug development strategies based on animal modeling are increasingly called into question by the scientific community, recognizing the need to accelerate the growth of human‐focused and human‐relevant science and research both in toxicology/regulatory testing and in other fields (Archibald et al., 2018; Bailey, 2018; Bailey et al., 2015; Chandrasekera & Pippin, 2015; Greek et al., 2012; Hall, 2020; Herrmann et al., 2019; Horejs, 2021; Ingber, 2020; Marshall & Willett, 2018; Nuwer, 2022; Pistollato et al., 2015; Pound, 2020; Pound & Ritskes‐Hoitinga, 2018; Seifirad & Haghpanah, 2019; Van Norman, 2019). In addition to scientific issues, there are increasing public concerns about laboratory animal suffering (EuropeanUnion, 2012; Strauss, 2018) and a commitment to explore alternative methods to replace laboratory animals in developing new drugs and products (Marshall et al., 2022; Neuhaus et al., 2022; Nuwer, 2022). However, conducting experiments on human subjects to test hypotheses and treatments related to human disease or to evaluate the safety of food or food additives may be difficult or impossible due to obvious ethical or practical issues.…”
