Dan Lyons awarded a PhD
Uncaged’s Campaigns Director Dan Lyons has been awarded a PhD
for his research into the evolution of British animal
research policy. This establishes Dr Lyons as one of the
country’s leading authorities on the politics of animal
experimentation.
His extensive thesis described and explained
the entire evolution of animal research policy in Britain,
from its inception prior to the 1876 Cruelty to Animals Act
to the present day. Unusually, the thesis was accepted by the
examiners without the need for any revisions, with its
quality praised in their reports.
