A new article published in G3 describes how the MiniMUGA genotyping array, a vital tool for genetic quality control in laboratory mice, has been updated to improve its performance. Used in over 40,000 genotyping tests, MiniMUGA helps research programs like the Collaborative Cross (CC) and the Mutant Mouse Resource and...

MMRRC consortium contributes to a white paper outlining a framework (LAG-R) for genetic documentation in publications that enhances Rigor and Reproducibility in biomedical research using animal models.

The NIH’s Office of Research Infrastructure Programs (ORIP) recently published an article highlighting the MMRRC’s work to develop new mouse models for COVID-19 research.

The MMRRC at UNC recently created a video primer on how to interpret a MiniMUGA Sample Report. This is the first in a planned series of videos that will show how the MMRRC uses MiniMUGA genotyping for Genetic Quality Control.
