Animal models are critical to advancing the understanding of, and intervention in, human disease in almost all areas of the life sciences. This volume provides examples of how animal experimentation leads to data applicable to human disease.
Animal models are critical to advancing the understanding of and intervention in human disease in almost all areas of the life sciences. This volume provides examples of how animal experimentation leads to data applicable to human disease. The ethics of animal use is explored, and details of the advantages of animal models over alternate systems are presented. The text guides the thought processes of students and scientists as they evaluate the potential use of animals in their own biomedical research.
