Isogenic strains (inbred strains and F1 hybrids) are like immortal clones of genetically identical individuals. The same genotype can be reproduced indefinitely. They have already made a substantial contribution to biomedical research.

3Rs
Scientists at the ICR are increasingly using non-invasive methods to measure the size of tumours in mice – allowing the same mouse to be assessed several times and reducing the overall numbers
Systematic reviews: Evidence from animal research is considered by researchers to be of the lowest quality in medical research.
There is a great need for valuable ex vivo models that allow for assessment of cartilage repair strategies to reduce the high number of animal experiments.
Discipline tool
The Biorepository Core Service is a phased project. Initially it will provide biologic sample management for JGM Researchers (receipt, accessioning, storage, retrieval). Subsequent developments will support sample processing, clinical sample management and a tissue bank repository.
