## Abstract

The objective of the Molecular Biology and Genotyping Module is to enhance the capabilities of individual
laboratories in conducting vision science research that requires genotyping of mouse models and use of other
molecular biology methods. Accordingly, the Specific Aims of this Module are as follows: 1) to provide a
centralized location and support for mouse genotyping; 2) to train researchers and provide individual
laboratories with assistance in their molecular biology projects; and 3) to provide training and access to shared
molecular biology equipment. The availability of this Module, run by highly experienced personnel, helps VSRC
investigators to efficiently manage their mouse colonies, reduce the cost of mouse housing, detect and
eliminate undesired mutations, increase the utility of mouse models in their research, and ultimately make their
science more cost-efficient and biologically relevant. Time- and resource-saving services of the Molecular
Biology and Genotyping Module are of great value to vision researchers at Case.
