In vivo experiments are used in various applications within epidemiology, including:
- Vaccine Development: Testing the efficacy and safety of new vaccines before they are approved for human use. - Drug Trials: Evaluating the therapeutic effects and potential side effects of new drugs. - Pathogenesis Studies: Understanding how pathogens cause disease within a living host. - Epidemiological Surveillance: Monitoring the spread and impact of diseases in a population. - Behavioral Studies: Observing how different behaviors or interventions affect health outcomes.
