in vivo studies

In vivo studies refer to experiments conducted on living organisms, such as animals or humans, to understand biological processes and effects of treatments or interventions. These studies provide insights that are more relevant to real-life situations compared to in vitro studies, which are done in controlled lab environments, like test tubes. In vivo research helps researchers observe the complex interactions of cells, tissues, and organs within a living system, leading to a better understanding of health, diseases, and the efficacy of medical therapies. Such studies are crucial for advancing medicine and improving patient care.
