HEARTS Act of 2025 aims to reduce animal use in federally funded research by establishing a National Center for Alternatives to Animals in Research.

The HEARTS Act of 2025 seeks to prioritize nonanimal methods in federally funded research by establishing a National Center for Alternatives to Animals in Research and Testing within the National Institutes of Health. The Center will develop, promote, and fund alternatives to animal research and testing, and create a plan to reduce animal use in federally funded research. It will also provide incentives for researchers to use nonanimal methods, ensure thorough searches for nonanimal alternatives in research proposals, and collect and publish data on animal use in federally funded research.
