WASHINGTON, Sept. 17 -- The Society for Neuroscience issued the following news release:
Researchers have taken further steps toward developing a superior animal model of neurological conditions such as traumatic brain injury and epilepsy, according to a study of miniature pigs (https://doi.org/10.1523/ENEURO.0102-18.2018) published in eNeuro. The results establish the pig as a promising preclinical research model for hippocampal-dependent human memory disorders.
