Removed BT Biology and life sciences as part of change to put all living things into Biology and life sciences/Organisms and thus avoid all Model organism papers that use Animal model organisms showing up in eTOCs for Zoology (and etc for other types of Model organism) 2013/08/08 (RD) |

scopeNote |
A model organism is a non-human species that is extensively studied to understand particular biological phenomena, with the expectation that discoveries made in the organism model will provide insight into the workings of other organisms. Model organisms are in vivo models and are widely used to research human disease when human experimentation would be unfeasible or unethical. This strategy is made possible by the common descent of all living organisms, and the conservation of metabolic and developmental pathways and genetic material over the course of evolution. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Model_organism RD |
