Summary
In this podcast episode, host Aaron Harmon speaks to Dr Neil Vargesson, chair in developmental biology at the University of Aberdeen, about the importance of Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) and why pre-clinical studies are key to keeping people safe.
They discuss the history of Primodos, a hormone-based pregnancy test that was given to women between 1959 and 1978. It was developed before GLP and before standardised testing for teratogenesis (causing birth defects). There are data that suggests Primodos caused birth defects, but more questions remain.
