SUMMARY:Best Practices in Laboratory Management
DESCRIPTION:Laboratory management is a subject that is often learned on the job\, with limited training opportunities for those new to the role. This course is aimed at both researchers who are new to management\, and managers who are new to the laboratory setting. It will provide a foundation of knowledge in various areas of laboratory management that participants can use to improve practices in their own workplace.\n\nA sustainability module is also included. This module is designed for laboratory leaders and decision-makers\, focusing on strategies to reduce the environmental impact of laboratory operations. It highlights how leadership can drive sustainable change by implementing policies and practices that minimise resource consumption and promote responsible innovation. Participants will examine practical and strategic approaches to enhance sustainability across laboratory systems — including optimizing energy efficiency\, reducing plastic and water usage\, and fostering sustainable supply chain partnerships.\n\nWho is this for?\n\n 	Researchers who have recently moved into laboratory management\n 	Managers who are new to science\n\nThis course covers topics including:\n\n 	Laboratory Health and Safety\, including Control of Substances Hazardous to Health (COSHH).\n 	Sustainable Laboratory Practices\n 	Inventory Management\n 	Quality Management Systems\n 	Research Integrity

SUMMARY:Mouse Genetics and Colony Management for Animal Technologists
DESCRIPTION:Who is this for? \n\n 	Animal Technicians\n 	Early Career Researchers\n 	PhD Students\n\nThis course introduces animal technicians and researchers to the background of mouse genetics and will cover topics such as Mendelian gene inheritance and genetic crosses\, as well as covering important colony management aspects such as calculation of breeding numbers and maintaining genetic integrity of Genetically Altered (GA) lines.\n\nAfter the course\, you will be able to:\n\n 	Understand the underlying biology of how DNA codes for proteins and how errors lead to genetic disease.\n 	Understand Mendelian gene inheritance\n 	Predict the outcomes of genetic crosses\n 	Have a working knowledge of the genetic background of mouse strains\n 	Understand how to maintain the genetic integrity of genetically altered lines\n 	Plan breeding schemes with consideration of the minimum number of animals required\n 	Understand how GA lines can be established from modern transgenic technologies
