摘要: Basic research is constantly adopting novel, innovative and powerful approaches to enable a deeper interrogation of the specific subject matter. A clear example this strategy development multiple imaging modalities, both in vitro vivo based, that have revolutionized medical research, drug discovery, diagnosis clinical monitoring. In themed section British Journal Pharmacology, we highlight number platforms which are discussed relation their applicability for pharmacological experiments, including longitudinal studies. As such, authors endeavour describe technology, its limitations how these can complement research. addition, there discussion role from perspective.
