        My work is very synthetic and about making molecules. Testing them on animals is not part of my research.

        I personally do not, as I do more of the creating stuff. I give it to the experts who know how to test experimental drugs on animals. Although, i would love to learn that in the future.

        Yes, it is part of my job as I am working in a medical application. However, I don’t do it myself, compounds that I am making are testing first on cells of interest and then the best ones are sent for animal testing

        well some of the drugs I investigate are tested by human animals with limited knowledge about safety.
