The aims of this 3-day meeting are to bring together veterinary and human pathologists and scientists working with mouse models in academic and industrial research to discuss the use of pathology and related in vivo techniques for phenotypic analysis of mouse models of disease. The programme will provide scientific, educational and training material and will allow for discussion of future scientific, educational and training needs and opportunities.
The meeting will cover the background strategies for making genetically altered mice, the importance of mouse strain, nomenclature, spontaneous pathology and sampling techniques. In addition, the use of pathology and related techniques will be illustrated using examples of mouse models of ageing diseases including cancer, metabolic diseases, neurodegeneration and arthritis.

Here it is...
Following on from a joint meeting in 2009 of the BSTP Council and Education Sub-committee, it was felt that the website was in need of a change. There were also additional features we wanted from our website such as the ability to have multiple editors and a member's only area for more sensitive content.

Although the "new site" has gone live (you're looking at it now), it is very much a work in progress. We have made a "clean" look to the site,and I hope you would agree this is more contemporary; we have the ability to appoint editors who can place additional content on the site (reducing the burden on the webmaster) and we have a Member's Only Area.
Toxicological Pathology is the journal of the BSTP. Members have access the online archive of the journal. Members can also choose to have a paper copy of the journal at a discounted rate subsidised by the society. Rules for authors and instructions for mansuscript submission can be found here.
