Interview! Dr. Theo Capaldo, President and Executive Director of the New England Anti-Vivisection Society

"We really try to fight science with science."

Dr. Theo Capaldo is the president and executive director of the New England Anti-Vivisection Society (NEAVS). NEAVS is committed to ending the use of animals as test subjects, and in fact spearheaded the successful campaign to the use of chimps in biomedical research in the United States. As a licensed psychologist, Dr. Capaldo is concerned about the impact of forced dissection in education as early as high school: she believes it works to eliminate compassion from students of the sciences. She also stresses how ineffectual animal testing is, and encourages constituents of schools and organizations, as well as consumers of animal-tested products, to start local campaigns against animal testing.

To learn more about NEAVS, please visit neavs.org, or visit releasechimps.org to learn about their successful chimp project. You can also call NEAVS at (617)-523-6020 between the hours of 9 AM to and 5:30 PM, Eastern.
