9.5 million knockout mouse embryo images now available

Posted by , on 20 July 2017

A new set of DMDD embryo and placenta data has been released, taking our total dataset to 9.5 million images of around 1300 embryos. DMDD is a primary screen of ...

New complexities in relationship between gene mutation and embryo development

Posted by , on 11 April 2017

  A large-scale study of DMDD data has shown that inactivating the same gene in mouse embryos that are virtually genetically identical can result in a wide range and severity ...

Why are geneticists measuring the webbing between mouse embryo fingers?

Posted by , on 21 February 2017

A new paper published in Journal of Anatomy shows that measuring the amount of inter-digital webbing in mouse embryos between 14 and 15 days gestation is the best way to find ...
