The pig as a model for immunology research

Cell and Tissue Research, 2020
The pig is an omnivorous, monogastric species with many advantages to serve as an animal model for human diseases. There are very high similarities to humans in anatomy and functions of the immune system, e g., the presence of tonsils, which are absent ...

Mapping short tandem repeats for liver gene expression traits helps prioritize potential causal variants for complex traits in pigs

Journal of Animal Science and Biotechnology, 2022
Background Short tandem repeats (STRs) were recently found to have significant impacts on gene expression and diseases in humans, but their roles on gene expression and complex traits in pigs remain unexplored. This study investigates the effects of STRs

PigV$^2$: Monitoring Pig Vital Signs through Ground Vibrations Induced by Heartbeat and Respiration [PDF]

, 2022
Pig vital sign monitoring (e.g., estimating the heart rate (HR) and respiratory rate (RR)) is essential to understand the stress level of the sow and detect the onset of parturition. It helps to maximize peri-natal survival and improve animal well-being in swine production.
