Quality Data at the Bench Begins with Gold Standard Mouse Colony Management
Seminar - The Jackson Laboratory, Bar Harbor, Maine, US
It’s easy to underestimate the impact of health and genetic quality on mouse research. We’ve learned from over 80 years of mouse colony management experience that pathogen outbreaks and genetic drift can rapidly devastate a research program. In this webinar, we will discuss:
-How animal health can affect phenotypes
-How to identify common threats to genetic quality and effects on research
-Best practices for rigorous animal health and genetic monitoring programs
-How you can recover from a pathogen outbreak or genetic drift
Presenter: Emily Jocoy, Ph.D., Technical Information Scientist
Moderator: Kathy Snow, Ph.D., Technical Information Scientist
