The International Mouse Phenotyping Consortium’s (IMPC) 10-year strategy presents a bold ambition for the future functional annotation of the genome and deciphering genetic variation in the context of gene function and disease. 2020 will mark the 10th anniversary of the consortium, and then IMPC presents a strategy that encompasses completion of Phase 2, and execution of Phases 3 and 4. PHENOMIN, which has come with other partners to produce this strategy, is really proud of its involvement to this huge project since its inception as a leader from mouse genetics centres across the world.
The 6 key goals of IMPC for 2021–2030 is to deliver broad-based genomic insights into the function of human genetic variation in both coding and non-coding sequences that underpins future developments in precision medicine, rare disease, clinical genetics, and healthy living. This strategy document includes a statement on the underpinning rationale for how mouse genetics and mouse models inform gene function, human disease, and clinical genetics and a clear description fo each key goals.
FELASA, the Federation of European Laboratory Animal Science Associations, represents over 4000 specialists in the field of laboratory animal science from 28 countries and 21 constituent associations.This triennial congress has grown to become the largest European laboratory animal science event attracting almost 2000 participants. This congress is always organized together with one of the FELASA Constituent Associations, which gives us all a great opportunity to familiarize ourselves with the cultural features of different countries in Europe. This time our host will be CLASA, Czech Laboratory Animal Science Association.
The FELASA Congress is a scientific and educational event, offering the current knowledge on the use and welfare of animals in experiments and how to make improvements in these areas: in Prague, a special issue will be the correct reporting of animal research. Animal welfare, ethical aspects, legislation and education are obvious parts of congress topics. We will also have the newest information and recommendations on how to working with aquatics and some other rarely used species.
FELASA Congress is not only science and education. It is also a large exhibition, showing the recent updates in animal care materials and equipment, animal use and health programs, and research equipment. You will have the opportunity to talk with the representatives from the companies exhibiting, and get information on all new equipment, techniques and almost everything needed when working with laboratory animals.
And finally – professional and social contacts are something invaluable in a face-to-face environment. This is an integral part of the FELASA Congress: meeting colleagues from all over Europe – and beyond – renewing old and making fruitful new acquaintances by means of informal conversations.
The FELASA Congress is the perfect occasion to combine continuing education with informal exchanges of ideas.

INFRAFRONTIER2020 project - Trans-national Access call for proposals (June 2019)
The INFRAFRONTIER mouse clinics offer the examination of mouse mutants using a broad and standardised phenotypic check-up covering key research areas such as behaviour, clinical chemistry, immunology, energy metabolism, and lung function amongst others. If phenotypes are uncovered by the primary assays, mouse mutants can be subjected to more detailed analyses in hypothesis driven and disease focussed phenotyping pipelines.
In this specialised phenotyping call we provide access to a comprehensive panel of phenotyping tests, relying on standardized and customized protocols in key therapeutic areas. There are 2 proposals:
The second one is proposed by PHENOMIN-CIPHE. Please find below the application form :

The 33rd edition of the annual conference of the International Mammalian Genome Society is held in Strasbourg, France !
We welcome you to the PHENOMIN-ICS and IGBMC ! We are planning an exciting meeting on mammalian genetics and genomics. The perpetual evolution of mammalian genomics is the main focus of IMGS' annual conferences. The meeting will begin with five Workshops followed by a Student Satellite Symposium that offers the opportunity for scientists to compete for awards and presentation slots in the main meeting. Indeed, most of the talks are selected from submitted abstracts and there are poster presentations as well ! The conference will once again include the popular mentoring lunch where those looking for career advice can interact with established scientists.
The window to register is limited -- abstract, registration and IMGS scholarship application deadline is June 16 !
Limited places available, so register early to save your spot !

@LluisMontoliu has just tweeted: "Today the @EU_H2020 Project PATHBIO is launched in Barcelona, led by Jesús Ruberte @UABBarcelona aiming to teach the future mouse pathologists in Europe. Tomorrow the satellite meeting will be open to the public and I will talk about transparency in laboratory animals research".
PHENOMIN-ICS takes part of the project
Experts in functional mouse genomics will meet with top international medical researchers at the INFRAFRONTIER/IMPC conference 2019 on `Genetic Variation, Big Data and Ageing´.

CRISPR-Cas9 is a rapid and cost effective technology to generate mouse and rat mutant models, however, its impact on the genome still requires careful consideration. For further insight we are pleased to present the following Charles River-hosted webinars presented by G. Pavlovic, head of the genetic engineering department of PHENOMIN-ICS
For more information, and to watch the webinar replays on demand, please visit the Charles River Website.
PHENOMIN-ICS works with you from concept to model creation using homologus recombination, latest CRISPR/Cas9 and RNAi technology, and either other trangenic technics to deliver the most relevant model for your application. The effective research with rodent models depends on finding the best appropriated model for your project. How can we help you? Request a quote or email us.

"Au nom de l’AFSTAL, j’ai donc le plaisir de vous convier au 45e Colloque de notre Association qui se déroulera du 2 au 4 octobre 2019 dans la ville de La Rochelle et dont le titre sera “Origine et devenir de l’animal de laboratoire”. Dans la lignée des éditions précédentes, nous consacrerons la première session du colloque à la présentation des plateformes locales et des équipes scientifiques des régions de Loire-Atlantique et de Poitou-Charentes. Nous consacrerons ensuite l’ensemble des conférences au “suivi des animaux de laboratoire” dans tous ses états...Nous apporterons encore cette année une attention toute particulière aux retours d’expérience...La plus grande exposition commerciale d’Europe sera accessible durant la totalité du colloque afin de favoriser les discussions et les échanges entre les congressistes et les exposants...Pour le Comité d’Organisation, Frédéric Jacquot, Président de l’AFSTAL"
Rencontrez nous !
Venez nombreux !

PATHBIO Imaging mouse master class consists of one of the three intensive courses from PATHBIO consortium. The PathBio project brings together an ERASMUS+ Knowledge Alliance consortium from across the globe to cooperate on pooling resources and expertise in order to build the framework for a European post graduate degree in Precision pathobiology for disease models.
The Imaging mouse master class will take place from the 4th to the 8th of November, in Strasbourg (from Monday morning to Friday afternoon).
The detailed program is right now in progress and will be defined as soon as possible- HAVE a look to the previous PATHBIO summer school on Anatomy & Pathology
