The German Mouse Clinic

Website of the German Mouse Clinic: http://www.mouseclinic.de

Goal

The characterisation of mouse models for human diseases to understand molecular mechanisms of human disorders and for the development of new therapies.

Strategy

To develop and offer a large scale standardised and comprehensive phenotypic analysis of mouse mutants from various sources (transgenes, knockout mice, mutants from mutagenesis screens like ENU).


Mouse phenotype

We offer the examination of mouse mutants using a broad standardised phenotypic check-up with more than 240 parameters. The screens in the German Mouse Clinic are designated to the areas of behaviour, bone and cartilage development, neurology, clinical chemistry, eye development, immunology, allergy, steroidmetabolism, energy metabolism, lung function, vision and pain perception, molecular phenotyping and pathology.

 
Head of the German Mouse Clinic is: Prof. Dr. Martin Hrabé de Angelis
