Abstract
Abstracts are not currently available in GtR for all funded research. This is normally because the abstract was not required at the time of proposal submission, but may be because it included sensitive information such as personal details.
Technical Summary
The Mary Lyon Centre is an enabler of science but in order to do this effectively, at the cutting edge of technological progress, with scientific credibility we maintain an innovative technical development programme. This couples service provision with an research to develop and refine techniques in the fields of gene editing, phenotyping and cryobiology.
