Neuroscience Research Models & Preclinical Services

Neuroscience research is biologically complex, and translating discoveries into therapies carries significant translational risk. At JAX, we help academic and biopharma researchers reduce that risk with rigorously quality-controlled models and validated in vivo preclinical services. Our comprehensive catalog of well-characterized, disease-relevant mouse models and isogenic human iPSC lines supports reproducible, reliable, and biologically relevant studies. Researchers can use JAX® Mice directly in their labs, or seamlessly transition them into studies with our dedicated in vivo neuroscience team, which brings decades of experience designing and executing IND-supporting studies for multiple therapeutic modalities. With the models and expertise at JAX, your neuroscience research advances with confidence.
