# Animal and Metabolic Phenotype Analytic Core

> **NIH NIH P01** · AUGUSTA UNIVERSITY · 2024 · $308,000

## Abstract

PROJECT SUMMARY
The primary function of the Animal and Metabolic Phenotype Analytic Core (Core B) is to provide
support to the individual projects within the Program Project related to the generation of novel
animal models and phenotyping thereof. The Aims of Core B are to insure consistency of
background by generating all founder mice on a common background and prevent drift between
projects and to rigorously phenotype these mice at baseline and as directed by Project leaders.
Dr. David Stepp, with over 20 years’ experience in metabolic phenotyping and generation of novel
animal models will oversee Core B. The four subject areas for phenotyping are 1) macroscopic
anatomy, 2) microscopic anatomy, 3) in vivo cardiometabolic physiology and 4) in vitro vascular
physiology. Core services will report out at monthly meetings of the PPG in terms of volume and
output and to solicit feedback on core functions from PPG participants.
