Consortia and Partnerships
Connecting to key resources, which Mouse Biology is part of, to excel in research and share resources worldwide.
The Mouse Biology Program (MBP) is committed to supporting the global biomedical research community by collaborating with leading organizations focused on mouse model development, phenotyping, and genetic research. Below, you’ll find critical resources closely linked to MBP, offering comprehensive tools and networks to advance your research.
Mutant Mouse Resource & Research Centers (MMRRC)
The MMRRC is a national network that maintains and distributes genetically engineered mouse models to support biomedical research. As a core network component, MBP serves as one of the primary centers, providing high-quality, well-characterized mouse strains, cryopreservation services, and related resources to researchers worldwide. Learn more about how MMRRC can support your projects through our shared repository and services.
Mouse Metabolic Phenotyping Centers (MMPCLive)
MMPCLive offers specialized phenotyping services focused on metabolic diseases, providing researchers access to standardized assays, pilot funding, and expert consultation. As a partner in the MMPC network, MBP connects researchers to advanced phenotyping resources that support studies in metabolism, obesity, diabetes, and related areas. Explore MMPC-Live to discover how it can enhance your research capabilities.
Knockout Mouse Project (KOMP)
KOMP is a collaborative effort to create and characterize knockout mouse models representing every gene in the mouse genome. MBP contributes to this initiative by offering services for generating and analyzing KOMP models, ensuring researchers can access reliable genetic tools for studying gene function and disease mechanisms. Learn more about how KOMP resources can accelerate your research.
International Mouse Phenotyping Consortium (IMPC)
The IMPC aims to systematically characterize knockout mouse strains for every gene, providing a global platform for researchers to access valuable phenotypic data. MBP works alongside IMPC partners to deliver comprehensive phenotyping data that informs genetics, disease mechanisms, and drug development studies. Access IMPC data to expand your understanding of gene function and mouse biology.
Other Mouse Research Resources
MBP also collaborates with other organizations that advance mouse genetics and phenotyping, including regional consortia, academic centers, and private research institutions. By partnering with these organizations, we ensure that researchers can access an extensive network of resources, tools, and expertise to support their work.
Connecting You to Global Research Resources
At MBP, we believe in the power of collaboration and resource sharing to drive scientific discovery. These partnerships ensure that researchers have the support, information, and models needed to make groundbreaking discoveries in health and disease.
