title: Transgenic primate research paves the path to a better animal model: are we a step closer to curing inherited human genetic disorders?
abstract: While the advancement of transgenic primate models has led to a new era in modeling human conditions and has a clear impact on elucidating the mechanism of human genetic diseases, some thoughts should be considered if non-human primates are the appropriate model.
