How Do In Vivo Studies Differ from In Vitro and In Silico Studies?
In vitro studies are performed outside a living organism, usually in a controlled laboratory environment using cells or biological molecules. In silico studies, on the other hand, rely on computational models and simulations. While these approaches offer valuable initial insights, in vivo studies provide the necessary context to understand how biological processes function in the complexity of a living system. This makes in vivo studies indispensable for validating findings from in vitro and in silico research.
