Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine

The Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine (www.PCRM.org) is a nonprofit organization working towards compassionate and effective medical practice, research and health promotion. For the last 26 years, PCRM has led the way for reforms of federal nutrition policies, and our clinical research programs are breaking new ground in diabetes, cancer, and other serious medical conditions. We have fought for an emphasis on prevention, higher ethical standards in research, and scientific advances in basic research and effective drug development. Over the years, we have taken on battles to end ethically questionable experiments involving children and inhumane animal experiments and have worked to improve science education. We have worked with physicians, federal regulators, politicians, researchers, educators, students and concerned citizens. And we have so much more work to do.
