Moving Forward: Recent Developments for the Ferret Biomedical Research Model 2018-07-17 .txt text/plain 1607 80 37 While widely recognized for its utility in influenza virus research, ferrets are used for a variety of infectious and noninfectious disease models due to the anatomical, metabolic, and physiological features they share with humans and their susceptibility to many human pathogens. To resolve this, a group of researchers from around the world are working together to develop validated reagents and assays to improve our understanding of the innate and adaptive immune responses in the ferret.
