Abstract
Emerging drug discovery technologies are helping us to break from the traditional simplistic cycle of animal experimentation for human applications with “spin off” benefits for veterinary medicine. A more coordinated effort can develop synergies. In this chapter we attempt to profile how those technologies harnessed independently for human or veterinary medicine have related features. We discuss shared approaches and requirements that are reaping benefits for both human and veterinary patients.
