| Description | ShARM is a not-for-profit organisation consisting of a collaboration between MRC Harwell and the Universities of Sheffield and Newcastle, and is funded by the Wellcome Trust. We aim to accelerate research into ageing by providing immediate access to cost effective aged mouse models and their tissue. We also provide a unique, online environment for users to network and exchange knowledge (our ShARM community). Our services contribute towards reducing the number of animals used in research. |
