Consortium Participants
As a pilot program, the dkCOIN project includes the following participants. More information is available on the About dkCOIN page.
Beta Cell Biology Consortium(BCBC)
The mission of the Beta Cell Biology Consortium (BCBC) is to facilitate interdisciplinary approaches that will advance our understanding of pancreatic islet development and function with the long-term goal of developing a cell-based therapy for insulin delivery.
Diabetic Complications Consortium(DCC)
The mission of the DCC is tto create an environment where communication and collaboration is fostered between investigators that don’t typically interact. The Diabetic Complications Consortium (DCC) will continue to provide such an environment by holding an annual scientific meeting and soliciting new collaborative activities that will broaden the scope of the consortium from animal model development to all basic and/or translational studies of diabetic complications.
National Mouse Metabolic Phenotyping Centers(MMPC)
Our mission is to advance medical and biological research by providing the scientific community with standardized, high quality metabolic and physiologic phenotyping services for mouse models of diabetes, diabetic complications, obesity and related disorders.
Nuclear Receptor Signaling Atlas (NURSA)
NURSA's mission is to further the objectives of the nuclear receptor and coregulator signaling scientific community in the key areas of research and education.
T1Dbase(T1DBase)
T1DBase is a web based resource focused on the genetics and genomics of type 1 diabetes susceptibility (T1D). Our mission is to provide a curated and integrated set of datasets and tools, across multiple species, to support and promote research in this area.
