Our Mission

Welcome to The Aisling Center.

Pronounced “ASH-ling”, the mission of The Aisling Center is to replace the use of dogs in biomedical research and product testing with non-animal methods that advance science ethically and effectively and improve both human and animal health.

Our Approach

innovate. educate. regulate.

At Aisling, we believe in inspiring change by working with policy makers, industry leaders and academic researchers in the life sciences to identify and overcome the scientific, economic, regulatory and social barriers to replacing dogs with nonanimal methods and technologies.

Our Philosophy

compassion. conviction. commitment.

At Aisling, we believe that lasting change begins with a compassionate conversation, progresses with a conviction that a better way forward is possible, and succeeds with a commitment to weather the discomfort of getting there.

Change happens by listening, and then starting a dialog with the people who are doing something you don’t believe is right.
