All about the connection...The MMRRC has a great methbod to eliminate guesswork in experimental design via the Strain GQC Report to map genomic variations and find improved information from model selection. Read More Here: https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.aec3177

Allele in a day's work: A new MMRRC paper delivers a framework to optimize design and elevate reporting in mouse models. 🔬
Far from focusing on flawed models, the work is about supporting researchers and improving scientific rigor. 🔗 https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.aec3177
