BIOMEDICAL RESEARCH AND ITS BROAD FIELDS

Biomedical research is the broad area of science that involves the investigation of the biological process and the causes of disease through careful experimentation, observation, laboratory work, analysis, and testing.

Biomedical research is the broad area of science that looks for ways to prevent and treat diseases that cause illness and death in people and in animals. This general field of research includes many areas of both the life and physical sciences.

What is Biomedical Research? Biomedical research is the broad area of science that involves the investigation of the biological process and the causes of disease through careful experimentation, observation, laboratory work, analysis, and testing.

The Scientific Method: observation, hypothesis, experimentation, and conclusion.

 Basic research is conducted to increase fundamental scientific knowledge, and to expand our understanding about how processes in living organisms develop and function. It provides the building blocks upon which other types of biomedical research are based.

 Applied research is directed towards specific goals and discoveries, such as the development of a new medication, medical device, or a surgical procedure. It involves using existing knowledge (gained from basic research) and methodically expanding this knowledge to address the specific medical problem.

 In vitro research (from Latin meaning “in the glass”) –bacteria, cell, tissue, and organ cultures done in laboratories.

Ex vivo research (from Latin meaning “out of the living”) refers to experimentation done in or on living cells or tissues taken from an organism and cultured in a laboratory apparatus, outside the organism. The living cultured cells serve as models of the whole organism, reducing the need for in vivo research.

Pre-clinical trials and clinical trials are examples of this type of research. Pre-clinical trials involve non-human animal models, and assist researchers in furthering their knowledge and in discovering more effective methods for diagnosing, treating, and curing diseases that affect both humans and animals. Because animals are biologically similar to humans and are susceptible to many of the same diseases and health problems, researchers use animals as models during more advanced stages of biomedical research.

Clinical trials take place in a hospital or a clinical setting, and involve informed human volunteers to gauge the safety and effectiveness of drugs, procedures, or medical devices. Human studies can only begin after exhaustive studies and regulatory evaluation, including pre-clinical trials, have been conducted. There are three major phases of clinical trials, all done in careful coordination and with the approval of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), before approval for general use is gained, or is rejected.

Kindly let me know your interest and willingness in submitting any of the above mentioned research categories by mailing at Biomedres@peerreviewedjournals.com

BMR looks forward to working with you on this collaboration.
