Most likely the first work done for medical reasons will involve developing protocols to synthesize the useful components of the venom. Althogh some snakes will be euthanized at the university level for various reasons, most of the venom used to determine the structure of the proteins will just be "milked" from lab raised snakes.

Well hopefully anyway
