Large-scale mapping of pig genes could pave the way for new human medicines
Researchers have carried out complex genetic analyses of hundreds of pigs and humans to identify differences and similarities
12-Jan-2024 -
It may sound strange, but we can actually learn more about ourselves by studying pigs. Pigs and humans are pretty similar. Our organs, our skin and the way many diseases develop are largely the same. Pigs have therefore long been used to develop and test new medicines, even though pigs are ...
