Animal Models Integrated Network (AMIN)

Objective

We welcome every interested individual to take part in our group, as this group is a multidisciplinary group the collaborative work of different people from different fields is needed. Before the onset of the project we aim to know each and every member very well to assign the appropriate responsibilities to him/her and to support his/her weaknesses too. The vital skills will be taught to our members through different workshops.

Definition

An animal model is a non-human species used in medical research because it can mimic aspects of a disease found in humans. Animal models are used to obtain information about a disease and its prevention, diagnosis, and treatment. By using animals, researchers can carry out experiments that would be impractical or ethically prohibited with humans.
