Seminar - The Jackson Laboratory, Bar Harbor, Maine, US
Mouse strains with varying degrees of immunodeficiency are powerful tools for modeling human disease.In this webinar, we will highlight the most widely used immunodeficient models and discuss important considerations for selecting the most appropriate one. Join us to learn:
The varying degrees of immunodeficiency in common mouse models
Benefits and limitations of nude, scid, and Rag1-null mice
Recent advancements using the most versatile NOD-scid gamma (NSG) strain
Innovations for studying human cancer made possible by the NSG strain
Model considerations for generating “humanized” immune system mice
Presenter: Peter Kelmenson, Technical Information Scientist
Moderator: Emily Jocoy, Ph.D., Technical Information Scientist
