商品簡介
Pharmaceutical and biomedical researchers looking for animal models will be the main audience for this volume, edited by Conn (Oregon National Primate Research Center, and Oregon Health Science U.). Focusing on comparisons and usefulness of the animal models, the chapters describe a variety of research avenues, such as modeling cognitive and degenerative disorders in fruit flies, congenic mouse strains for candidate disease gene identification in complex traits, nonhuman primate models for AIDS, and animal models of prostate cancer. Introductory chapters provide an overview and general considerations. Annotation c2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
