Each summer, for the past 54 years, The Jackson Laboratory and Johns Hopkins University host the annual Short Course on Medical and Experimental Mammalian Genetics, held during the last two weeks of July. As a part of this course, the Mouse Clinic is offered. This is a unique exhibition of over 150 mutant mice and their controls demonstrated and discussed by the principal investigators who are actively working with them. This alone is a valuable and unique opportunity for pathology residents and pathologists interested in learning about mutant mice, many of which are used in toxicology studies, to actually see and learn about a large number of such mice with a great diversity of diseases in one afternoon in one location. We have carried this one step further. As these mice are demonstrated outside the barrier facility and cannot be returned, rather that euthanizing the mice and discarding them, they are moved into a quarantine facility and made available for workup by up to 7 pathologists/pathology residents under the supervision of two senior pathologists and their highly experienced technicians.

By keeping the workshop small, focused, and inexpensive (only costs are travel, room, and board; no registration fee) with an unparalleled mutant mouse resource to investigate, a great deal of hands-on experience can be obtained in understanding how to work with and interpret mutant mouse pathology.
