eläinmalleista
Eläinmallit, or animal models, are non-human animals used in scientific research to study biological processes or diseases. These models are chosen because they share certain genetic, physiological, or anatomical similarities with humans, allowing researchers to investigate conditions that would be unethical or impossible to study in people. Common animal models include mice, rats, zebrafish, fruit flies, and non-human primates.
The use of animal models is a crucial component of biomedical research, contributing to advancements in understanding
Despite their importance, the use of animal models is subject to ethical considerations and regulatory oversight.
