Jackson Lab Expanding Mouse Program
Jean Mccann | Sep 3, 2000 | 6 min read
Scrambler, Fidget, Stargazer, and other mouse strains that mimic human neurological diseases, may have to move over. They are about to get plenty of company in their home in Bar Harbor, Maine. The Jackson Laboratory is planning to use its largest grant ever--$16.3 million from the National Institutes of Health--to develop and support more strains of mimicking mice. With a new building under construction, Jackson is expected to increase by 16 percent the number of mice it can maintain. At present
Telomeres as the Key to Cancer
Jeffrey Perkel | May 26, 2002 | 9 min read
The standard modus operandi for modeling human diseases in the mouse: Find an interesting gene, knock it out, and watch what happens.

But mice, of course, are not humans, and many investigators have had to hastily rewrite otherwise elegant theories because of mouse data. One reason? Researchers have taken for granted that telomere length matters. But
