Genetically Engineered Rats: A New Paradigm for ADME/Tox Assessment

With the recent advent of ZFN-induced gene targeting, it is now possible to make rat models with very specific gene deletions or insertions. These next-generation models have the potential to serve as more predictive indicators of drug effects than currently available murine models. In this session, you will learn about the creation of such models and potential applications.
