Webinar: Humanized NSG™ mice: revolutionary models of human infectious diseases
Humanized NSG™ Mice: Revolutionary Models of Human Infectious Diseases (8/14/2014)
Humanized NOD scid gamma mice have emerged as the most versatile small animal models of human infectious diseases. This webinar will highlight recent advances using this model and offer a glimpse into the future of infectious disease modeling. Join us as we discuss the following topics:
• How NSG™ mice are efficiently reconstituted with functional human immune cells
• How NSG™ mice model infection by pathogens with human tropism
• Breakthroughs in our understanding of HIV infection and the evaluation of novel therapies
• Models for tropical diseases, including malaria and Dengue virus
• HLA transgenic NSG™ variants that advance small animal vaccine models
