Overview
Key facts
The mouse has become the most powerful experimental system we have for mammalian research. The mouse had genetic and physiological systems and a metabolism that truly resembles those of humans. It is also a technically advanced system, permitting facile and powerful experimentation. Finally, the mouse model is practically feasible, relatively inexpensive and easily transported from one laboratory to the other. However, working with mice requires specific knowledge. The Mouse Genetics for Disease Modelling course offered by the Institut Pasteur is an intensive laboratory and lecture course of five weeks. It is composed of lectures given by internationally renowned scientists. The Mouse Genetics for Disease Modelling course gives specific knowledge and explores the cutting edge of research in embryology, Mendelian and complex traits genetics, genomics, functional genetics, gene manipulation, and mouse models for translational research.
