Explain the advantages and disadvantages of transgenic animals for neuroscientific studies?..

Answer / Mohd Suhail

Transgenic animals, such as mice with altered genes, are used extensively in neuroscientific studies due to their genetic similarity to humans. Advantages include the ability to study specific genes and gene functions, as well as modeling human diseases. However, disadvantages include ethical concerns, potential unintended effects of the genetic modifications, and the limitations of using animal models for understanding complex human brain functions.
