Example of abnormalities. |
| Learning outcome: |
Acquire primary expertise in mouse development. Be able to design primary phenotyping experiment on mouse embryos. Learn about all the primary phenotyping analysis on mouse embryos. Dissect of post implant embryos. Determine the window of lethality in utero. Value embryos viability at neonatal step. Observe embryos by echography. Image embryos by MicroCT. |
| Qualification received: |
This training course is an « action d’adaptation et de développement des compétences » (ref. French law). A certificate of attendance is delivered after the course. An evaluation measures the trainees’ satisfaction and the achievement of learning objectives. |
