The 15th Transgenic Animal Research Conference (TARC) brings together
representatives from the leading laboratories worldwide who are doing
cutting edge research on transgenesis and gene editing in non-murine animals,
including livestock, fish and poultry species. This conference has for 30
years brought together scientists to discuss progress, problems, policy and
potential applications of transgenic and gene editing technology for food
animal applications.
