About

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 brings together scientists to discuss progress, problems, policy and potential applications of transgenic and gene editing technology for animal applications.

Intended Audience

Scientists working in the fields of genetic engineering and gene editing in agricultural species, federal regulators and livestock producers.
