The mouse Genetic services aspect of this Model Organisms Core is widely used core service byMRDDRC investigators and serves an essential service to the MRDD community. The MRDDRC will partnerwith the existing Biological Sciences Divisional Core to provide transgenic and targeted mutagenesis servicesto MRDDRC investigators. By partnering with the existing Divisional core, the MRDDRC grant strengthens thealready successful core. MRDDRC investigators will gain a subsidy services through this core. MRDDRCfunding of the divisional core also allows the addition of ES cell culturing services and gene targeting -services not currently available in the Divisional Mouse Core. Further, the MRDDRC investigators will haveavailable the expertise of both MRDDRC co-directors - both accomplished mouse geneticists with extensiveneurobiological expertise. The co-directors will provide project design consultation, vector design expertise andadvice for analysis. The co-directors are familiar with the research programs of all MRDDRC users and canfacilitate interactions between investigators for reagent sharing and collaborations for further analysis. The codirectorswill also refer users to other MRDDRC cores for additional analysis of mouse models generated,including the new Mouse Phenotyping Subcore.
