Downsized Miniature Swine: A New Spin on the Oldest Model
Miniature swine have supported biomedical research for decades, offering physiological and anatomical similarities to humans across numerous organ systems. New, smaller models such as the Sinclair Nanopig™ make it possible to retain these translational advantages while addressing practical considerations associated with animal size.
This webinar examines the expanding role of miniature swine in nonclinical research, including species selection, regulatory acceptance, human relevance, and applications in the safety assessment of small molecules and biologics. It also explores how downsized miniature swine may reduce test-article requirements and make the model practical for a broader range of development programs.
