The Jackson Laboratory 2013 Free Webinar: Beyond Leptin: Emerging Mouse Models of Type 2 Diabetes

The Jackson Laboratory Webinar - Free

Polygenic mouse models are powerful tools for understanding and developing better treatments for obesity and type 2 diabetes. Choosing a model requires a clear understanding of the benefits, limitations, and environmental factors that affect its phenotypes. Join Jackson Laboratory technical information scientists as they discuss:

• The strengths and weaknesses of spontaneous and induced type 2 diabetes mouse models

• Published discoveries, including underlying mechanisms to drug discovery

• Proven husbandry techniques that minimize mouse-to-mouse variability

• Tips for planning experiments with diabetic mice
