Does the KOMP Repository accept mouse strains donated by individual investigators for archiving and distribution?

Maybe! The KOMP Repository is dedicated to archiving and distribution of vectors, ES cells, mice, embryos, and sperm generated as a result of the NIH KOMP Mutagenesis Project. If you have made mice from ES cells obtained from the KOMP Repository (such as through the NIH KOMP Supplement Program), then we will gladly accept them into the KOMP Repository…contact us at [email protected] or at 1-888-KOMP-MICE (1-888-566-7642) and we’ll help you to make the necessary arrangements.

Otherwise, if you are interested in depositing non-KOMP related vectors, ES cells, and/or mouse lines (live mice or germplasm) for archiving and distribution, you can do so at the Mutant Mouse Regional Resource Center (MMRRC), a publicly-accessible archive and distribution repository funded by the NIH. Call us at 1-530-754-MMRRC (6677) for more details, or go to www.mmrrc.org and click on the “Strain Submission� Button which will link to a description and instructions for depositing your mouse line in the MMRRC.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
