Beyond Leptin: Emerging Mouse Models of Type 2 Diabetes
Webinar - The Jackson Laboratory, Bar Harbor, Maine, US
The July webinar series is about diabetes and obesity research
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 and limitations, and environmental factors that affect the phenotypes. Join us as we 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
Presenter: Peter Kelmenson, Technical Information Scientist
Moderator: Kathy Snow, Ph.D., Technical Information Scientist
