We hope that you will enjoy this podcast with Leta Nutt, 2023 winner of our Next Big Thing Pitch Competition. Leta is a devoted dog mom and seasoned biomedical scientist with 25 years of expertise in unraveling the intricacies of cancer cell demise. She’s on a mission to revolutionize the approach to addressing boar taint in piglets by replacing cumbersome procedures with a user-friendly single-injection sterilant. The drug she developed permanently eliminates boar taint, and when administered through a purpose-designed medical device, not only minimizes exposure risks but also signifies a significant leap forward in improving the welfare of piglets. The drug that she developed has many future applications, including, a humane means of neutering our pet population.
