Necrobiology comprises the life processes associated with morphological, biochemical, and molecular changes which predispose, precede, and accompany cell death, as well as the consequences and tissue response to cell death. The word is derived from the Greek νεκρό meaning "death", βìο meaning "life", and λόγος meaning "the study of".[1]
In the 2010 video game Splatterhouse, necrobiology is fictionalized as a scientific study in which dead matter can be reanimated.
