This course will offer a training opportunity to South American research 
scientists and veterinarians in charge of laboratory animal facilities, 
in the most prominent areas of mammalian genetics (mostly mouse).

This course offers an opportunity to receive an intensive training and 
get in touch with scientist of the region working in the same fields of 
interest.

    * Wild derived inbred strains
    * Spontaneous and induced mutations -- phenotype driven and genotype
      driven mutagenesis
    * Genetic mapping; physical mapping; positional cloning; candidate
      gene identification
    * Statistical genetics and complex trait analysis
    * Transgenesis under its various forms, gene expression analysis,
      strategies in induced mutagenesis (knockout, knock in, conditional
