Key Points

To establish an interdisciplinary foundation for animal research ethics that integrates scientific, legal, and moral considerations.
Synthesized perspectives across research ethics, animal ethics, scientific disciplines, and law based on cross-disciplinary scholarly experience.
Structured the complete trajectory of animal experimentation into seven operational stages (Phases 0 through VI).
Identified 16 specific ethical, legal, and practical challenges spanning the seven phases of animal research experiments.
Characterized four overarching meta-challenges and opportunities: moral pluralism, integrating non-laboratory perspectives, navigating international disparities in standards and law, and fostering interdisciplinary education.
