Abstract:
The Conference on Swine in Biomedical Research was held April 2-3, 2008, in San Diego, California. The goal of the conference was to bring together individuals who are using swine as models, creating new swine models, or studying human health and disease. This is the only conference that focuses exclusively on swine models and as such is the premier meeting for investigators who use or develop swine as models for biomedical research. The sessions focused on (1) swine models of human health and disease, (2) genomics, proteomics, and basic tools, (3) physiology and infectious disease, and (4) swine organ transplantation. In addition, a keynote speaker discussed the bioengineering of organ printing. This article presents a synopsis of the proceedings of this conference; abstracts of the presentations are available online (www.nsrrc.missouri.edu).
