The Jackson Laboratory

چکیده
The Roscoe B. Jackson Laboratory, known commonly in the scientific field as the Jackson Laboratory, was founded by Clarence Cook Little [5] in May 1929. The lab has been pivotal in research with in vitro [6] fertilization [7], teratomas, gene replacement therapy for birth defects [8] , and more because its researchers have focused from the beginning on developing the mouse [9] as a model organism [10]. Mice were chosen by researchers at Jackson as the best available model for genetic research, and today genetically uniform strains of mice developed at the lab are used in laboratories all over the world. Located at Bar Harbor on Mount Desert Island in Maine, the Jackson Laboratory focuses today on cancer research using mouse [9] genomics.
