Although I have finally pinpointed on a topic I want to research, genetic modification of animals, it was a bit of endeavor to ask a question that I want my research to answer. There are many directions I can take my research towards. My options range from the ethics of genetic modification, the benefits and hinderance on animals for food or medicine use, to just about genetic modification in general and how it affects our daily lives. All of these ideas interest me and initially, I was leaning towards researching the benefits of genetically modified animals on animals versus humans. But in the end, I decided that since I am in the pre-pharmacy major, I want to use this research opportunity to my advantage and focus on the use of genetic modification of animals for medicine.
How is genetically modifying animals helpful towards the medical field?
I realize that this question can be a tad bit difficult when researching for sources, but I will be focusing on the broad aspect of how genetically modified animals contribute towards medicine. These contributions can be whether it's researching medicine, creating new medicine or testing medicine. Hopefully, I will be able to find abundant sources that will uphold my research.
