Michal Berens, a cancer researcher at the Barrow Neurological Institute of St. Josephs Hospital and Health Center in Pheonix AZ, has been torturing and wasting the lives of
hundreds of innocent beagle puppies.
First Berens operates on pregnant beagles by injecting cancer cells under the skin of her developing puppies - a procedure that takes anywhere from 4 - 14 hours. However at least 75 percent of the puppies are stillborn or aborted. At approximately six months of age Berens removes the tumors from under the skin of the "survivors" and implants them into their brains via holes drilled into their skulls. Of the estimated 471 dogs used by Berens since 1990, "two successful fetal surgeries and tumor implants have been published and documented." Thus the failure rate of his project is between 95 and 98 percent.

Arizona State University (ASU) recognized that something was amiss with Berens experments and decided to end its support. It is time the National Institiute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke and St. Joseph's do the same. We hope you will stand up and stop supporting this cruelty.
