Genomics Core (GenCore)
The Genomics Core Facility in the Center for Genomics and Systems Biology provides the necessary resources to researchers in order for them to perform a wide range of experiments. The equipment housed in the facility covers the areas of transcriptomics, proteomics, genomics and beyond. GenCore operates next generation sequencing machines with ancillary equipment necessary to conduct high-throughput sequencing experiments. GenCore also operates and trains researchers on a variety of equipment for expression profiling, robotics, protein detection and quantification, and flow cytometry.
Biological Imaging Core
In the Biological Imaging Core Confocal Microscopy is only the beginning. Our collection of microscopes includes a spinning disk, laser capture, two photon and others.
