    We are leaders in CRISPR/Cas9 gene targeting. Twenty-four CRISPR/Cas9 projects have progressed beyond genotyping of founders and have generated the desired mutations. Most projects have progressed to mating of the founders and have shown germline transmission of the mutant alleles. More details on CRISPR/Cas9 success rates here.

     Our fees are low, our wait times are short and our success rates are high. New transgenic and targeted mice that we have created are featured in over 200 publications since 2004.

    We are supported by the Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine the Case Comprehensive Cancer Center and the Clinical and Translational Science Collaborative.
