​OUR MISSION

GMRC is dedicated to promoting the use of Galleria mellonella as an alternative to using rodents and other mammals for scientific experimentation. To facilitate wider uptake, we are developing a comprehensive genetic, cell biological, developmental and tissue-based toolkit - including transgenic and CRISPR-based technologies.

We are keen to communicate the advantages of Galleria and are actively seeking collaborative projects to further extend the capabilities of this novel and exciting model system.
