Advances in generation of mice that on human hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell transplantation develop and maintain human hemato-lymphoid cells have fueled an already thriving field of research. We focus here on human T cell development and HIV infection in Rag2 -/-γc -/- mice transplanted as newborns with human CD34+ cord blood hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells.
