Since using human organs is an ethical non-starter, medical research instead uses model organisms like mice or rabbits, whose physiology closely resembles the human system. These defenseless animals are infected with diseases so that scientists can study how the disease affects the organs or test a...
Genetic engineering borderlines on many moral and ethical issues. One of the major questions raised is if humans have the right to manipulate the laws and course of nature. Genetic engineering may be one of the greatest breakthroughs in recent history alongside the discovery of the atom and spac...

This has been made possible by the availability of the complete sequence of its genome and the development of technologies for genetic manipulation. Finally, B. mori is still widely used in sericulture and biotechnology as a bioreactor for producing recombinant proteins and silk-based biomaterials [...
