Exemplar Genetics, a biotechnology research company based in Coralville, Iowa, develops animal models that closely mirror human diseases. These models enable researchers to explore disease mechanisms and to test diagnostics, procedures, devices, prevention strategies, and therapeutics, with the aim of better predicting how interventions will translate to human patients. The company serves biomedical researchers and research institutions seeking translational models to bridge laboratory findings and clinical outcomes. It has pursued collaborations to advance porcine models for human disease, including a 2018 partnership with Ellegaard Göttingen Minipigs to provide models, and a 2019 collaboration with Lovelace Biomedical to continue development of a porcine model for Sickle Cell Disease. As a smaller firm in the biotech sector, Exemplar operates with a lean team focused on supporting discovery and translational research.
