San Francisco, Feb 16 (TIWN) Tech billionaire Elon Musk's brain-chip company Neuralink has denied claims from an animal rights group that accused the company of subjecting monkeys to "extreme suffering" during years of experiments.
The nonprofit Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine (PCRM) has accused Neuralink and UC Davis of nine violations of the federal Animal Welfare Act. In a statement, Neuralink said that they are absolutely committed to working with animals in the most humane and ethical way possible. “While the facilities and care at UC Davis did and continue to meet federally mandated standards, we absolutely wanted to improve upon these standards as we transitioned animals to our in-house facilities,” the company said late on Tuesday.
