Northwestern CCM

Northwestern CCM is partnering with Transnetyx to provide you with additional tools for managing your mouse breeding colonies. 

Transnetyx Colony+AMI is your online database for mouse lines managed by the CCM Breeding Service. Transnetyx has activated AMI (Artificial Mouse Intelligence) for all labs currently supported by the Breeding Service, enabling you to identify ways to reduce unnecessary breeding, low-density cages, and excess stock cages. 

Why Transnetyx

Transnetyx is uniquely positioned to help individual research labs and institutions align with policy-driven frameworks, including the New Approach Methodologies (NAMs), the 21st Century Cures Act, and the NIH Gold Standard. Through a broad portfolio of products and services that support scientific rigor and the 3Rs, Transnetyx empowers researchers to reduce waste, advance research, and adopt a more modern, data-driven approach to study design and reporting. 

Testimonials from researchers

Our lab regularly checks for excess cages on a weekly basis and the AMI evaluation function has been especially useful to identify these cages as well as older breeding cages including those with long breaks between litters.


Lab Manager & Research Associate

AMI has been an extremely valuable resource that has helped me to assess which breeders are still viable and which have aged out and need to be culled. This allows for the possibility of more productive breeding pairs in regards to project timelines. The user friendly software makes it easier to submit request forms to DLAM.


Lab Manager & Research Associate

One of the pain points of using the request form is that I have to manually identify the mice or cages that need to be culled due to old age or lack of space and type it onto the request form. It was great to see how AMI automatically assessed my colonies with a few clicks to establish the filters to find mice that could be removed from the colony.
