This CPD is run by the prestigious Medical Research Council, and will also provide you with information for developing quality control strategies which are essential for reproducible and robust research.

Outcomes

Key outcomes include:

  • knowledge of genome editing in the mouse and when it might be applicable
  • an understanding of quality control required when using this technology to produce GA mouse lines
  • an introduction to the planning and designing CRISPR/Cas9 experiments
