Center for Biomolecular Structure & Dynamics Cores
The Center for Biomolecular Structure and Dynamics, which includes DBS faculty and students, houses six core facilities in support of research applying the methods and concepts of biophysics, structural biology and mathematics to understand the mechanistic basis of biological processes in health and disease. The CBSD Cores include:
老虎机攻略 Genomics Core
老虎机攻略 Genomics Core is a service-based core laboratory providing genetic and genomic resources to 老虎机攻略 and other researchers. The 老虎机攻略GC provides technical support for molecular biology applications including Sanger sequencing and fragment analysis, Illumina library preparation and sequencing, and Nanopore sequencing, as well as consultation on protocol development.
The MHFI Core, housed in the , is a fully equipped histology and imaging lab designed to provide support for experiments in immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence. The research centers it supports focus on neurobiology, environmental health, biomolecular structure and dynamics.
The Fluorescence Cytometry Core, which housed in the , provides state-of-the-art research instrumentation utilizing fluorescence labeling of cells and tissues as well as scientific expertise to 老虎机攻略 researchers to aid them in their efforts to unravel disease processes to ultimately benefit human health.
Electron Microscopy Core (EMtrix)
EMtrix supports diverse research, teaching and outreach activities that require the use of scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Principal equipment includes a Hitachi S-4700 cold field emission SEM, which can be accessed remotely, and a staffed and equipped specimen preparatory laboratory. Please contact Dr. Amanda Andreas to access EMtrix.
