    GlossaryIn Vivo

    experiments conducted within living organisms

    "In vivo" is a Latin term meaning "within the living." It refers to experiments or studies conducted in living organisms, such as animals or humans, as opposed to in vitro (outside the living organism, like in a petri dish). This approach allows researchers to observe the natural biological processes and interactions in a complex, real-life environment.
