Have you ever had to delay an experiment because you didn’t design your breeding scheme to produce enough knockout (KO) or control mice? Are you unsure of the most efficient way to set up your cross? Get a refresher on the fundamentals of basic mouse genetics and learn some tricks from our experts to plan your next experiment better. Join us for this seminar to learn:
- How to apply Mendelian genetics to mouse crosses
- How to use Punnett squares to calculate expected genotypes
- Ways to design efficient breeding schemes to create simple and complex genetic models
that combine two or more alleles.
