International Opposition to Xeno

The groups and individuals listed below, share the conviction that Xenotransplantation must never be accepted as a safe, ethical or efficacious medical procedure.

Substantial evidence, compiled by researchers world-wide, supports this view. We need to have a stronger voice to convince researchers, governments and the general public of the wisdom of pursuing and adopting far more ethical and superior methods by which to address human organ, tissue and cellular deficiencies.
