Sizing Mouse Colonies
Issued by
The Jackson Laboratory
Earners of this credential can accurately size experimental mouse colonies to match genetic and genomic research needs in a consistent manner using a minimum of resources. Earners are able to use a worksheet and estimate the number of breeders needed for regular consistent production of mice, analyze which colony output decisions impact colony size and identify how maintaining mixed age colonies promotes more consistent breeding performance.
