Tool Access Key
Nuclear Receptors (48 genes)“Druggable” so “Exciting”

Research Activity = InnovationCorrelates with tool access
OUR GOAL IS TO EVEN OUT THIS DATA

Meeting Objectives
1. Networking:• Meet Consortia Champions• Meet key people at Harwell working on the IMPC
2. Find out more about the IMPC & MRC Mouse Network• Aims, timescale, status• Tools to Assist Your Networks
• MMN Portal• Training
3. Consoria Work Plans• Presentation and discussion of tests proposed • Other ways the Consortia are planning to contribute• Clarifying the roles of Harwell and the Consortia

Proposed IMPC Embryonic Phenotyping Pipeline
IMPC & InfraComp Workshop on Embryonic Lethal Screening
Two Day Workshop: April 18th-19th, 2012; Institute of Child Health, UCL Organizers: Andy Copp (UCL), Janet Rossant (Univ Toronto), Tom
Weaver (MRC Harwell), Tim Mohun (MRC NIMR), Monica Justice (Baylor), Michael Raess (HMGU)
Goal: Agree a consensus strategy for embryonic phenotyping & LacZ analysis
Topics: Scientific Value of Embryology to Research Community Current Status of Screening – Don’t reinvent the wheel,
Funding opportunities Operational Workflow – Not One Single Pipeline, Best Fits LacZ Reporter Analysis – Agree Pipeline Information Technology & Annotation

Tests in Development: Pilot Data Being Collected
Expectations For NetworkPromote IMPC and Mouse Models:
facilitate more road shows, participate in training course(s)
Proactive Discussion/Planning: Assign a “Champion” to be main contact with Harwell.
Simplify, streamline the communication (gene lists, issues, ideas). Updated/Revised Plan in April.
Encourage the network to evolve so that individuals can work together rather than simple info flow from Harwell/Pis. Use the portal as a project management/coordination tool.
Direct Participation: Actions with Added Value to Program Pilot Work: Kick-start secondary phenotyping Active Uptake of Lines/Data
Feedback: We will ask for a report at end of first year (spring 2013), will
influence development of the program
On-line Portal
Individual members of the MRC Mouse Network will be able to communicate directly to one another in a manner similar to “Facebook”
