Another research project, now underway at the University of North Carolina at Chapel
  Hill, is called Drug Induced Liver Injury simulation model (DILI-sim). This is taking
  results from testing animals and reverse engineering to develop a computer model for
  testing new drugs in the future.


 
  What will be an ideal response?

Question 2

Does this new approach to testing toxins seem adequate to you?
 
  What will be an ideal response?

Answer to Question 1

Would you be comfortable taking a new medication that
had only been tested with this sort of computer simulation testing? Would you be more
comfortable taking medication that had first been tested on animals of some kind? Use
ethical reasoning to develop your answer.



Answer to Question 2

Does the computer
simulation approach seem like the best way to determine which chemicals will be toxic to
humans? Is the testing on animals more promising? How should the risk to animals be
balanced against the risk to humans in this testing? Use ethical reasoning to develop
your answers.

It most often affects middle-aged and elderly individuals, spreading to surrounding tissue in the lungs. The disease often does not respond to conventionally successful treatments, and requires individualized therapies in order to keep it from becoming life-threatening.
