The team who have developed the listing of terms is lead by mouse care staff and have worked with veterinarian advice to compile a list of controlled language for cage-side descriptions of any mice that may cause concern while being used for scientific research. text/html 2009-11-17T11:03:04+00:00 Andrew Blake http://www.mousewelfareterms.org/doku.php?id=mouse_links&rev=1258455784&do=diff Project Partners * MRC Harwell * The Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute Cambridge Related Projects * EUROPHENOME * EUMODIC * EUMORPHIA * EUCOMM * PRIME * EMMA * CASIMIR * Infrafrontier Other Resources * Mouse Phenome Database * Mouse Genome Informatics * ENSEMBL Genome Browser * RIKEN * The Centre for Modeling Human Disease (CMHD) * RSPCA * NC3Rs text/html 2009-11-17T10:44:06+00:00 Andrew Blake http://www.mousewelfareterms.org/doku.php?id=use_of_the_welfare_listings&rev=1258454646&do=diff The listing is hierarchal and looks to aid the user by giving a standardised description of what they are observing. Accompanying the descriptors is a definition that should clearly describe the overall welfare or behavioural condition that you wish to note.
