Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine in Baltimore, MD is one of the last schools to use live animals for surgical training.

Already, more than 90 percent of schools have eliminated live animal labs from their curricula altogether. Urge Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine to follow suit >>
