A natural animal model is defined as an animal group or species that possesses a set of biochemical/physiological characteristics which are natural and adaptive for that animal, but are quite abnormal for humans. For example, how is it that birds can tolerate blood glucose concentrations which in humans are associated with diabetes. The natural animal model is living proof that a biological answer to this question is available. By studying natural animal models, we can gain valuable insights into the treatment of various human clinical disorders. Covering a wide range of disorders, this book describes in detail how medical scientists can take advantage of all the “research” that nature has already performed over billions of years in biological problem solving through extensive animal design testing and selection.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBAuthor: Michael Alan SingerGenre: MedicineTopic: Science Nature & MathRelease Year: 2007 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
