Human-relevant research. Animal-free by design.
The Human Relevance Navigator™ (HRN™) is Galactic Unity’s early-stage research-planning prototype. Built around the Human Relevance Stack™, it is intended to help research teams explore human-relevant methods, identify evidence gaps, and flag reported animal-derived materials.

What HRN™ is designed to support
- Exploring New Approach Methodologies (NAMs), human data, organoids, microphysiological systems, and computational approaches
- Identifying research evidence gaps and uncertainties
- Flagging possible animal-derived materials such as Matrigel and fetal bovine serum for review
- Planning research transitions toward more human-relevant approaches
- Examining opportunities for synthetic and other animal-free materials
Our ethical commitment
Galactic Unity prioritizes Replacement of animal testing. We aim for animal-free-by-design approaches, including scrutiny of upstream research materials. An alternative method is not automatically animal-free: its components and evidence still need independent review.
Early-stage status and limitations
HRN™ is a proof of concept under development. Its coverage, links, materials information and recommendations may be incomplete. A missing animal-derived-material flag does not demonstrate that a method is animal-free. Suggested approaches require independent expert verification.
