Our capabilities span the breadth of the genetic engineering “toolbox”, giving us the freedom to take a "top-down" approach in our designs. We focus first on achieving a GEM with the desired phenotype, and from there select the best tool to achieve this objective. At each step, we build in redundancies to mitigate risks inherent to the model generation process. Robust quality control measures ensure integrity and confidence as we progress through each phase of the project.
As the only integrated model design to management offering, we have moved the goalposts. No longer satisfied with the conventional deliverable of a small cohort for breeding, we moved the deliverable to a complete study cohort ready for validation. This seamless transition not only accelerates the process, but ensures no time or knowledge is lost in the transition.
As no two research projects are the same, no two breeding projects carry the same requirements. Taconic works with principal investigators and veterinarians to tailor our approach to the specific needs of each breeding project, at each stage of the project.
