Terminology is important. Gender & sex are NOT the same! In animal studies you should NOT use the word gender. In #clinicalresearch these terms represent distinct experimental variables & using them incorrectly leads to controversy, confusion & delay in scientific progress.
Taconic published an article highlighting the importance of using the correct terminology of sex and not gender in animal research with expert interviews from @doc_becca, @LiisaGalea, and @AnneZMurphy. Read the article here: https://t.co/ZjjxGkpAoy #TaconicInsights
Don't miss tomorrow's educational webinar on the different drug discovery application of the classic diet induced obese (DIO) B6 mouse. Get insight into the differences between available DIO models related to substrain and other factors. Secure your spot: https://t.co/iPSYvAlzno
It is fun being out in the field with @Taconic and @CyagenBio colleagues and learning about exciting research being done with #mousemodels. Thanks @Penn!
๐ฃ Calling all preclinical researchers at @Penn! Taconic representatives will be on campus next week to discuss how the right murine model can unlock your next scientific breakthrough.

๐ Unravel the complexities of C57BL/6 substrains in this upcoming webinar.
Join Dr. Phil Dubรฉ as he discusses the origins, applications, and implications of variability in this popular mouse strain to select the best mouse for your study: https://t.co/2m7hAHCe3i
The deadline is TODAY at 5 p.m. PDT for your abstract submissions for #SITC23! Make your mark at the leading #cancer immunotherapy and tumor immunology conference. Please share with your IO colleagues! Submission details are here: https://t.co/xCPDFLK5GT #immunotherapy
It's been a wonderful & rewarding experience collaborating with @LifeCanvasTech on this 3D brain imaging work to advance #alzheimersdisease research using @Taconic APPSWE & ARTE10 (APP-PS1) #mousemodels. I look forward to continuing our partnership and accomplishing even more!
How does whole brain mapping make a difference in Alzheimer's research? Check out this poster from @SfNtweets 2022, where we combined our tools with a @Taconic mouse model to generate unbiased spatial distribution data for beta-amyloid plaques, microglia, & astrocytes.
Supporting and helping spearhead this program in order to help alleviate the costs of #mousemodels for academic scientists to progress their research is just one of many rewarding aspects of my job. Congratulations again to all the winners.
We are proud to award #academic grants to support innovative research into the link between obesity and #melanoma, cognitive dysfunction in a rodent model of #NASH, and the potential of a novel rheumatoid arthritis treatment, among others.
