About

From VHS Cover:

It is designed to answer the many questions and concerns expressed by this age group about biomedical research in all its aspects. It contains valuable information about biomedical research from a past, present and future perspective and has received high acclaim from a widely based audience.

Award Winning Video!

On September 27, 1993, Richard B. Long, President of the Film Council of Greater Columbus, Ohio, announced that the video "Biomedical Research: Is It Really Necessary?" was awarded the prestigious Certificate of Honourable Mention at the 41st Annual Columbus International Film Festival.

June Callwood, noted Canadian author, wrote,

"It is an enchanting piece of work, merrily presented by teenagers and full of vitality. Biomedical research is presented by acknowledged experts in a low-key manner easy to absorb and the format is beguiling. This video is impressive in its clarity and commonsense approach; though it is geared to the level of teenagers, adults can enjoy and benefit from this charming work."

Jerod M. Loeb, PhD, Assistant Vice President Science, Technology and Public Health, American Medical Association is quoted as saying,

"In the last several years I have reviewed many tapes created for different audiences on the issue of medical research using animals. Far and away your tape is the best. I am impressed by the entire effort, including script, interviews, graphics, etc."

Human-made No record of this work says a model made it. What this means.
