Thank you, Dr Kat Herrmann, for representing animals when discussing why the #ForcedSwimTest is BAD science 🙏
Kathrin Herrmann discusses the need to rethink use of the forced swim test in depressive disorders research. "We must not rely on anthropomorphic over-interpretations of the behaviour of non-human animals when translating to human clinical conditions." #UFAW2024
