Merck Genome Research Institute
Lexicon and the Merck Genome Research Institute (www.mgri.org) signed an agreement in April 1997 for the generation of 150 lines of OmniBank mice. The OmniBank mice produced under the agreement will be made available to researchers throughout the world, at a nominal fee, through one or more not-for-profit distributors selected by MGRI for that purpose. A committee of leading scientists appointed by MGRI selects the lines of OmniBank mice produced under the agreement.
