How do you make sure all those experiments don't interfere with eachother?
- DrAwdeOccarim 5y agoYou can’t really. You test in naive animals when critical, but repeating an experiment or needing a quick binary read-out, you can use non-naive successfully.
- dexwiz 5y agoFrom what I remember most of the experiments where more material based like healing a bone, or replacing a joint, or some sort of implant. So you could have things interfere, but it wasn’t like drug trials which would effect the entire body.
- cpdean 5y agothe image here got so much more visceral now i guess i shouldn't be surprised what a medical experiment is but breaking a pig foot?? ouch
- dexwiz 5y agoOrthopedic surgeons break bones all the time. It sounds cruel, but when done in a medical context, it's not so strange. It was a surgical procedure, it's not like someone dropped a rock on an awake pig.
