The Consortium will distribute mouse strains in a manner that is consistent with NIH guidelines and with the Materials Sharing Policy of the program (datashare) to maximize research within the scope of the program. Mouse strains created by the Mouse Transgenics Core (F) Mouse strains created by the Mouse Transgenics Core (F) will be made available to the Mouse Phenotype Core (G) and to Participating Investigators as soon as sufficient numbers are bred to support distribution. Requests from Participating Investigators will be prioritized by the Steering Committee based on the impact of the proposed experiments to the goals of the Consortium. However, it is anticipated that requests for breeding pairs can be accommodated within a few months of mice first becoming available. The subject of the research proposed by each investigator receiving mice will be posted on the members’ website to minimize conflicts. Mice will also be distributed to investigators outside of the Consortium following the first publication or public presentation at a scientific meeting in accordance with NIH guidelines. Investigators outside of the Consortium interested in obtaining mice before publication will be invited to join the Consortium and take on the responsibilities of a Participating Investigator, which include sharing data before publication. Mice contributed by Participating Investigators Twenty-nine knockout strains acquired from Participating Investigators that have been available through Core F are in transition to new homes. When the transition is complete, some strains will be available from The Jackson Laboratories and some will continue to be available from the original contributors. During the transition phase they will continue to be available from Core F. |
