    About This Project

    Humans are genetically complex, but mice are inbred. Thus, many past tests of therapies in mice have failed in clinical trials with humans.

    Using a panel of genetically diverse mouse strains can remedy this problem. We have a good start but we need to sequence information on more strains.

    Let's help scientists unlock the mouse genome in 35 mouse strains to speed individualized medicine to treatment.
    Blast off!
