Ms. Stoick is a scientific and policy adviser with the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine (PCRM), a nationwide organization that promotes, among other policies, alternatives to the use of animals in research and testing.

Her efforts have focused on animals used in regulatory testing, and she has worked to impact several federal programs and policies such as the US EPA's High Production Volume Chemical Challenge Program and its pesticide Registration Review process, as well as activities of the Interagency Coordinating Committee on the Validation of Alternative Methods (ICCVAM). In 2006, Ms. Stoick was nominated to serve as the Animal Protection representative on the EPA's Pesticide Program Dialog Committee, a public advisory committee that advises the EPA on pesticide issues. She also coordinates PCRM's efforts as Secretariat of ICAPO, a nongovernmental coalition of international animal protection organizations that advocate for policies that will reduce, refine, and replace the use of animals in the test guidelines and programs of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD).

Ms. Stoick received her Master of Public Health in Toxicology in 2003 from the School of Public Health at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor. Before joining PCRM, She worked at the University of Michigan Occupational Safety and Environmental Health Environmental Laboratory.
