Michigan Mouse Metabolic Phenotyping Center in Live Models
Michigan Mouse Metabolic Phenotyping Center in Live Models
Welcome to Michigan MMPC-Live!
At the Michigan MMPC-Live, we are dedicated to advancing scientific research in metabolic dysfunction such as diabetes, obesity, and related health conditions. Directed by Dr. Carol Elias, our state-of-the-art facilities offer specialized phenotyping services in mouse models, allowing researchers to explore the intricacies of metabolic processes.
VIBRANT program
The MMPC-Live VIBRANT program is committed to fostering diversity and inclusivity in biomedical research. Our mission is to empower New Investigators, underrepresented PIs, and investigators from institutions that have not received considerable or consistent federal funding.
