Envenomation research focuses on understanding the effects of venom from various animals, such as snakes, spiders, scorpions, and marine creatures, on humans and other animals. Researchers in this field study the biochemical properties of venom, its mechanisms of action, and potential treatments for envenomation. The ultimate goal of envenomation research is to develop effective antivenoms and other therapies to counteract the harmful effects of venom and improve outcomes for envenomated individuals.
