Design and production of genetically engineered mouse strains by individual research laboratories, research teams, large-scale consortia, and the biopharmaceutical industry have magnified the need for qualified personnel to identify, annotate, and validate (phenotype) these potentially new mouse models of human disease. The PATHBIO project has been recently established and funded by the European Union's ERASMUS+ Knowledge Alliance program to address the current shortfall in formally trained personnel. A series of teaching workshops will be given by experts on anatomy, histology, embryology, imaging, and comparative pathology to increase the availability of individuals with formal training to contribute to this important niche of Europe's biomedical research enterprise. These didactic and hands-on workshops are organized into three modules: (1) embryology, anatomy, histology, and the anatomical basis of imaging, (2) image-based phenotyping, and (3) pathology. The workshops are open to all levels of participants from recent graduates to Ph.D., M.D., and veterinary scientists. Participation is available on a competitive basis at no cost for attending. The first series of Workshop Modules was held in 2019 and these will continue for the next 2 years.

PATHBIO：精确的小鼠表型研究的国际培训计划。

由各个研究实验室，研究团队，大型财团和生物制药行业设计和生产的基因工程小鼠品系，扩大了对合格人员进行识别，注释和验证（表型）这些潜在的新型人类疾病小鼠模型的需求。 。PATHBIO项目是最近由欧盟ERASMUS +知识联盟计划建立并资助的，目的是解决当前受过正式培训的人员的不足。解剖学，组织学，胚胎学，影像学和比较病理学方面的专家将举办一系列教学研讨会，以提高接受正规培训的人员的人数，从而为欧洲生物医学研究企业的这一重要市场做出贡献。这些讲习班和动手研讨会分为三个模块：（1）胚胎学，解剖学，组织学和影像学的解剖学基础，（2）基于图像的表型，以及（3）病理学。讲习班向所有级别的参与者开放，从应届毕业生到博士学位，医学博士以及兽医学家。可以免费竞争地参加会议。第一期研讨会模块于2019年举行，并将在接下来的两年中继续进行。
