Grant Description

This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) invites applications for the continued support and advancement of the Mutant Mouse Resource and Research Centers, MMRRC (former Mutant Mouse Regional Resource Center program). The MMRRC consortium is expected to facilitate research by identifying, acquiring, evaluating, characterizing, cryopreserving, and distributing mutant mouse strains to qualified biomedical investigators. A regional network of four MMRRCs and an Informatics, Coordination and Service Center (ICSC) collectively serves the needs of the biomedical research community for transgenic, knockout and other genetically-engineered mutant mice and related biomaterials. The MMRRC consortium uses mutually agreed upon, defined standard operating procedures.
