This book describes the development of animal models widely used in biomedical research using step-wise instructions and photographs. Showcasing a wide range of species from zebra fishes, birds, rodents, rabbits, dogs, and pigs, the book includes detailed methodology on how to work with these species and to develop various models. The animal models in neurology including stroke, Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, and Schizophrenia; Animal models in cancer research, sleep disorders, and cardiovascular diseases are described to meet the understanding of researchers who plan to replicate these models in their laboratories. In depth detailing on the development of targeted gene knockouts and transgenics, implantation models that are used in toxicology studies, and pharmacokinetic studies in pigs and dogs are a highlight. Further, the book describes pharmacologic, chemically induced, surgically induced, microbiologically induced, infectious models, models for neurobehavioral studies, oncology research, and pain research. The book has dedicated sections on anesthesia and analgesia and teaches procedures like venous cut-downs and cannulations in pigs and dogs, and endotracheal intubation, mechanical ventilation and thoracotomy in rodents and will serve as a self-training tool. Concepts in the field of animal model development are explained using examples. Sample size selection, study design, and statistical evaluation of experiments involving laboratory animals are explained to enable young researchers to practically understand the nuances. This book will be a valuable tool for academicians, students, scientists, and veterinarians and will benefit equally who are new to the field and who are already working with laboratory animals.

He has also developed many preclinicaldisease models, in different therapeutic areas like diabetes, inflammation, arthritis, dyslipidemia, cancer etc. using different novel methodologies and techniques. He has enormous knowledge and experience in care, management, breeding and regulatory experimentation of laboratory animals including inbreds, outbreds, mutants, transgenics (genetically modified), immune-deficient and humanized animal models, dogs and non-human primates. He has also to his credit, a few innovative products which are commercialized and, are in the market, where he has been involved in basic research and development. He also worked for B.V. Patel Pharmaceutical Education Research & Development (B.V. PERD) Centre, Hester Bioscience ltd, and Cadila Pharmaceutical Pvt ltd, Ahmedabad in the field of biomedical research and development. He has undergone several training programs on laboratory animal management, health monitoring and animal model development. He served as a working group member to revise the syllabus for minimum standards for veterinary practice regulations for laboratory animals formed by The Veterinary Council of India (VCI), a statutory body. He has published more than 25 research publications in national and international peer-reviewed journals. He is also member of few societies of veterinary science and laboratory animal science. His current area of interest is improvement of current practices of laboratory animal care and management and refining methodologies in animal experimentation.
Dr. Perumal Nagarajan is working as head, scientist at laboratory animal facility, National Institute of Immunology, New Delhi, India. Being a veterinarian, he has been working on laboratory animals for more than 20 years. He has vast knowledge and expertise in the care, management, breeding and medicine of laboratory animals including genetically modified animals, immunodeficient animal models, humanized animal models and non-human primates that are beingused in research. Before joining NII, he worked at Central Drug Research Institute (CDRI) and the National University of Singapore (NUS). He had undergone diverse training in laboratory animals including imaging modalities and microsurgery abroad. His research interest is in animal models for various diseases and in particular metabolic diseases.
