Abstract
Coordinated systematic phenotyping of thousands of genetically engineered mice (GEM) with mutations in every protein coding gene, together with hypothesis-driven targeted phenotyping, has tremendous potential to inform and support diverse areas of translational biomedical research. Anatomy and histology phenotyping (pathology) is elemental to this ambitious endeavor. It is hoped that comparative atlases such as this will become essential tools for investigators conducting and reporting robust, reproducible, and relevant translational science, thus emulating Virchow and Osler in their recognition of the enduring relevance of comparative medicine and pathology. © 2012
